MCP server for Hostinger API

AI Security Review

scanned 7d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The flagged build subprocess runs the compiler only when the build command is invoked. Inspected authentication and API requests follow the configured service endpoints and caller-requested MCP operations; no concrete attack behavior was found.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

The server starts when a package entrypoint is invoked; API operations run after a client requests a tool.

Impact

No unconsented credential export, install-time mutation, or hidden account action was established.

Mechanism

OAuth uses Hostinger’s issuer by default and stores credentials in the user’s config directory. API requests use the configured API base, which defaults to Hostinger.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

package.json points to the server entrypoint and defines only start, build, and TypeScript start scripts, with no install lifecycle hook.
build.js invokes the TypeScript compiler when the build script runs.
The tool catalog includes a read-only VPS lookup operation; runtime operations execute in response to MCP tool calls.
OAuth uses Hostinger’s issuer by default, with an issuer override supplied through an environment variable.
OAuth credentials are stored under the user’s config directory; Unix writes request restrictive file permissions.
Runtime API requests use the configured API base, defaulting to Hostinger, and attach the bearer token to the request for the caller-invoked operation.
