MCP server for Hostinger API

AI Security Review

scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The flagged child-process use is in an explicitly invoked build script that runs the TypeScript compiler, not an install hook. Inspected OAuth and API requests are aligned with Hostinger services by default, and no concrete attack behavior was found.

Static reason

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

Trigger

Running a configured server entrypoint or explicitly invoking the build script.

Impact

No malicious impact was established from the inspected source.

Mechanism

The build script runs the TypeScript compiler; server API calls send bearer credentials to the configured API base URL, which defaults to Hostinger.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 95.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

The manifest points to the MCP server entrypoint and defines a build command, with no install lifecycle hook shown.
The build script runs the TypeScript compiler and copies package files into dist when invoked.
OAuth defaults to Hostinger’s issuer; an issuer override must come from the caller or environment.
The OAuth login exchanges its authorization code at the configured issuer, while runtime API requests use the configured API base URL and bearer token.
The server entrypoint loads the tool catalog and starts the Hostinger API MCP server.
