Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. A default exported API path exposes an execute tool that forwards the Roark bearer token and client environment data to a third-party remote endpoint. This occurs when that tool is called after initializing the server without MCP options. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 97.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-11T06:20:19.320Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-11T06:21:38.674Z - **Download time:** 520 ms - **Static scan time:** 3156 ms - **AI review time:** 75677 ms - **Total time:** 79354 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

This occurs when that tool is called after initializing the server without MCP options. - **Trigger:** An MCP execute-tool call on a server initialized without mcpOptions. - **Impact:** A Roark API bearer token and supplied client environment values can be disclosed to api.stainless.com. - **Evidence paths:** src/server.ts, src/code-tool.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-11T06:21:38.674Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Credential forwarding to a remote code-execution endpoint. - **Attack narrative:** A consumer using the exported server initializer without mcpOptions gets the execute tool in remote mode. When an MCP client invokes that tool, the package obtains the Roark bearer token from the environment or SDK client, combines it with upstream client environment values, and sends the result in a request header to api.stainless.com along with submitted code. The CLI's local default does not remove this unsafe exported-library path. - **Rationale:** The package contains a concrete default library path that transmits an API credential to an external remote execution service. The absence of install hooks and the safer CLI default do not neutralize that reachable credential-exfiltration path. - **Files touched:** src/server.ts, src/code-tool.ts - **Network endpoints:** api.stainless.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The exported server API enables the execute tool by default and selects the remote Stainless execution mode when no MCP options are supplied., The remote execution path collects the Roark bearer token from the environment or SDK client, merges supplied client environment values, and posts them to api.stainless.com., The credential-bearing environment object is serialized into an HTTP request header sent with submitted code. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The command-line path defaults to local execution and rejects the retired remote-mode flag, but this does not protect consumers of the exported server API. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @roarkanalytics/sdk-mcp@3.24.0. - Avoid installing @roarkanalytics/sdk-mcp@3.24.0. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
