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:
| Points | What was found | Category |
|---|---|---|
| −31.6 | Dynamic evaluation of a non-literal value ×6 MTC-SRC-010 | injection |
| −22 | Hardcoded AWS access key id in server code MTC-SRC-008 | exfiltration |
| −2.1 | Package has no source repository MTC-SUP-011 | supply-chain |
Grade capped: 1 confirmed high finding → grade capped at C. A hard gate overrides the point total — no amount of clean surface buys back a confirmed catastrophe.
Capability observations and info notes are shown under Findings but never scored.

Findings 19
high Reads a sensitive credential path or dumps the environment (mcpgateway/llm_provider_configs.py)MTC-SRC-006
In the server's implementation (`mcpgateway/llm_provider_configs.py:37`): Reading private keys / cloud credentials, or serializing the whole environment, is a sensitive-data source that becomes exfiltration when combined with any egress. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.
Evidence: .aws/credentials
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 mcpgateway/llm_provider_configs.py
high Hardcoded AWS access key id in server code (mcpgateway/llm_provider_configs.py)MTC-SRC-008
A live-looking AWS access key id is hardcoded in `mcpgateway/llm_provider_configs.py:307`. Secrets in source ship to everyone who installs the package and are a direct credential leak.
Evidence: AWS access key id: AKIA…(redacted)
Fix: Remove the secret, rotate it, and load credentials from the environment or a secret store.

high Dynamic evaluation of a non-literal value (mcpgateway/routers/llmchat_router.py)MTC-SRC-010
In the server's implementation (`mcpgateway/routers/llmchat_router.py:564`): Evaluating a runtime value as code (rather than a fixed literal) executes whatever reaches it — a direct RCE primitive, and almost never necessary in legitimate code. This is read from the code itself — not from the tool description — so a poisoned server cannot hide it behind honest-looking metadata.
Evidence: eval(

high Dynamic code execution in server code (mcpgateway/admin_ui/events.js)MTC-SRC-001
In the server's implementation (`mcpgateway/admin_ui/events.js:707`): Evaluating strings as code is the most direct RCE primitive; if any tool input reaches it, the server executes attacker-chosen code.

low Package has no source repositoryMTC-SUP-011
"mcp-contextforge-gateway" declares no repository URL, so its published artifact cannot be compared against reviewable source.
Fix: Prefer packages that link to public, reviewable source.

What this scan could not see
- No tools were enumerated, so prompt-injection, capability and toxic-flow analysis had no tool surface to inspect. To grade a package’s real runtime tools, scan the running server: --command "npx -y <package>".
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.
| Version | Score | Findings | Engine | Scanned |
|---|---|---|---|---|
v1.0.6 latest |
F 44/100 | 19 | 1.5.0 | 2026-07-22 |
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.
Verify this score yourself
The score above is reproducible: the same package version always yields the same result. Run it locally or over the free API — no account, no LLM, fully deterministic.
