Lightning Enable MCP Server

lightning-enable-mcp PyPI v1.24.1

Published by refined-element — no publish provenance, so origin is unverified, but the source is public: the repository link below is self-declared yet readable, so you can inspect the code before adopting it.

Part of Lightning Enable — infrastructure for agent commerce over Lightning. MCP server for L402 Lightning payments, API discovery, and agent commerce.

Blast radius if it went rogue — what the server’s tools could reach. Independent of trust.

A Why this grade threat 100 − adoption risk = 93/100

The grade answers one question — how safe is this server for you to adopt — so it is computed in two auditable stages. Nothing below is an opinion or an LLM's guess; every line is a real term the deterministic engine applied, and the same input always yields the same number.

1. Threat score — 100 − 0 = 100. What the published surface and source actually contain:

The deterministic scan raised no scored threat in the surface it inspected — the threat score stayed at 100. Capability observations and advisory notes are recorded but never lower it.

2. Client adoption risk — 100 − 7 = 93. Three small, subtract-only factors that reflect your risk in adopting it — a clean scan proves less on a powerful, unverified or barely-inspectable package, so the grade says so plainly:

PointsAdoption-risk factor
−6 capability blast radius (high) — client exposure if the model is manipulated
−1 publisher verification (public source) — no provenance, but the source is public and inspectable

Capability observations and info notes are shown under Findings but never scored. Open any row's finding below for the file, line and evidence behind a deduction.

Findings 3

high Shell/command execution in server code (src/lightning_enable_mcp/config.py)MTC-SRC-002

In the server's implementation (`src/lightning_enable_mcp/config.py:45`): Spawning a shell/process is command-execution capability; with unsanitized tool input it is command injection / RCE. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: setup. result = subprocess.run( ["icacls", str(path), "/inheritance:r", "/grant", f"{user}:F"],

Fix: Review this call path: confirm it never receives unsanitized tool input, constrain it, or remove it. Treat a server whose code reaches these sinks as high-capability regardless of what its tools claim.

Location: server src/lightning_enable_mcp/config.py

low Hardcoded egress to an external endpoint in packaging/dev tooling (tests/test_l402_client.py)MTC-SRC-003

In a packaging/dev/install script (shipped, but not the server runtime) (`tests/test_l402_client.py:412`): A hardcoded outbound call to a fixed external host inside server code is a classic exfiltration/telemetry channel — especially paired with reads of local data. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: await self.client.fetch( "https://original.example.com/data", headers={"X-Api-Key"

Fix: Review this call path: confirm it never receives unsanitized tool input, constrain it, or remove it. Treat a server whose code reaches these sinks as high-capability regardless of what its tools claim.

Location: server tests/test_l402_client.py

low Hardcoded egress to an external endpoint in packaging/dev tooling (tests/test_mpp_draft00.py)MTC-SRC-003

In a packaging/dev/install script (shipped, but not the server runtime) (`tests/test_mpp_draft00.py:458`): A hardcoded outbound call to a fixed external host inside server code is a classic exfiltration/telemetry channel — especially paired with reads of local data. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: receipt = await client.fetch( "https://api.provider.com/premium", max_sats=1000 )

Fix: Review this call path: confirm it never receives unsanitized tool input, constrain it, or remove it. Treat a server whose code reaches these sinks as high-capability regardless of what its tools claim.

Location: server tests/test_mpp_draft00.py

Scan history per published version. The engine is deterministic — the same version always yields the same score, so a changed score means the package itself changed.
