C Why this grade 100 − 28.5 = 72/100

Every server starts at 100. These are the exact deductions the deterministic engine applied — each one reproducible, none of it an opinion or an LLM's guess:

Findings 7

high Obfuscated / encoded payload in server code (dist/index.js)MTC-SRC-004

In the server's implementation (`dist/index.js:2`): Decoding an encoded blob and executing it is how malicious logic is hidden from human review of the source. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: \x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20

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 dist/index.js

high Obfuscated / encoded payload in server code (dist/templates/ioc.js)MTC-SRC-004

In the server's implementation (`dist/templates/ioc.js:1`): Decoding an encoded blob and executing it is how malicious logic is hidden from human review of the source. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: \x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20

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 dist/templates/ioc.js

high Obfuscated / encoded payload in server code (dist/templates/vue2.js)MTC-SRC-004

In the server's implementation (`dist/templates/vue2.js:1`): Decoding an encoded blob and executing it is how malicious logic is hidden from human review of the source. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: \x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20

Location: server dist/templates/vue2.js

high Obfuscated / encoded payload in server code (dist/templates/vue3.js)MTC-SRC-004

In the server's implementation (`dist/templates/vue3.js:1`): Decoding an encoded blob and executing it is how malicious logic is hidden from human review of the source. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: \x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20\x20

Location: server dist/templates/vue3.js

high Shell/command execution in server code (dist/cli/ioc.js)MTC-SRC-002

In the server's implementation (`dist/cli/ioc.js:2`): 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: child_process

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 dist/cli/ioc.js

medium Dynamic module load from a non-literal (dist/cli/ioc.js)MTC-SRC-005

In the server's implementation (`dist/cli/ioc.js:2`): Loading a module chosen at runtime (from a variable) can pull in and run attacker-influenced code paths. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.

Evidence: import(_0x313088)

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 dist/cli/ioc.js

Versions

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.

Embed this score

Show this server's live Trust Score in your README, docs or website. The badge is served straight from the registry and updates automatically after every rescan — no API key needed. It links back to this page, so anyone who sees the grade can also read the findings behind it instead of taking a number on faith.
