Coordinates 11 specialized vulnerability detection scanners through the MCPScanner orchestrator class using a pipeline pattern that manages repository cloning, parallel scanner execution, result aggregation, and cleanup operations. Each scanner extends an AbstractScanner base class providing common utilities for credential sanitization, file system operations, and result formatting, enabling modular vulnerability detection across MCP server implementations.
Unique: Implements a modular scanner architecture with 11 research-backed vulnerability detectors coordinated through a single orchestrator class, enabling extensible security scanning specific to MCP protocol implementations rather than generic code analysis
vs alternatives: Purpose-built for MCP security with domain-specific vulnerability patterns from VulnerableMCP database and HiddenLayer research, whereas generic SAST tools lack MCP protocol-specific detection rules
Implements CredentialScanner that detects hardcoded API keys, tokens, and insecure credential storage patterns in MCP server code using pattern matching against known credential formats (AWS keys, OpenAI tokens, private keys, etc.). The scanner includes built-in credential sanitization utilities in the AbstractScanner base class to mask sensitive data in reports, preventing accidental exposure of discovered secrets.
Unique: Combines credential pattern detection with built-in sanitization utilities in the AbstractScanner base class, ensuring discovered secrets are masked in reports to prevent secondary exposure when sharing vulnerability findings
vs alternatives: Integrated sanitization prevents accidental secret leakage in reports unlike generic secret scanners (git-secrets, TruffleHog) which may expose raw credentials in output
Executes all 11 vulnerability scanners in parallel using asynchronous operations, aggregating results from each scanner into a unified report. The orchestrator manages concurrent execution to balance performance with resource utilization, collecting vulnerability objects from each scanner and merging them by category and severity for comprehensive reporting.
Unique: Implements parallel scanner execution in the MCPScanner orchestrator with result aggregation, enabling all 11 vulnerability detectors to run concurrently while merging results into a unified report
vs alternatives: Concurrent execution versus sequential scanning reduces total scan time by leveraging multiple CPU cores, improving performance for large codebases
Provides AbstractScanner base class with shared utilities including credential sanitization, file system operations, result formatting, and error handling.

Utilities include regex-based pattern matching, file reading, and credential masking.
Unique: Provides AbstractScanner base class with built-in credential sanitization, file operations, and result formatting utilities, enabling consistent vulnerability reporting and reducing code duplication across all 11 specialized scanners
vs alternatives: Shared base class utilities versus duplicated code in each scanner, improving maintainability and consistency
Implements ToolPoisoningScanner that detects hidden malicious code, suspicious function implementations, and tool poisoning attacks in MCP server tool definitions. The scanner analyzes function signatures, implementation patterns, and data flow to identify code that may exfiltrate data, execute arbitrary commands, or bypass security controls through the MCP tool interface.
Unique: Analyzes MCP-specific tool definitions and function implementations to detect poisoning attacks targeting the tool interface, using data flow analysis to identify suspicious exfiltration or command execution patterns unique to MCP protocol
vs alternatives: MCP-specific tool poisoning detection versus generic code analysis tools that lack understanding of MCP tool semantics and attack vectors
Implements scanners that detect parameter injection vulnerabilities, improper input validation, and MCP protocol violations in server implementations. The detection engine analyzes how MCP servers handle tool parameters, resource requests, and protocol messages to identify injection attack vectors, missing validation, and deviations from the MCP specification that could enable exploitation.
Unique: Combines parameter injection detection with MCP protocol compliance validation, analyzing both input handling security and adherence to the MCP specification to identify vulnerabilities specific to the protocol implementation
vs alternatives: Protocol-aware injection detection versus generic SAST tools that lack MCP-specific validation rules and protocol compliance checks
Integrates vulnerability detection patterns derived from authoritative security research sources including the VulnerableMCP database, HiddenLayer research on parameter injection attacks, and Trail of Bits credential security analysis. The system maps research findings to specialized scanner implementations, enabling detection of known MCP vulnerability categories with patterns informed by real-world attack research and security best practices.
Unique: Explicitly integrates multiple authoritative security research sources (VulnerableMCP database, HiddenLayer, Trail of Bits) into scanner implementations, providing research-backed vulnerability detection with source attribution rather than heuristic-only pattern matching
vs alternatives: Research-informed vulnerability detection with explicit source attribution versus generic security scanners that lack MCP-specific threat intelligence and research integration
Implements configurable severity filtering (critical, high, medium, low) and vulnerability category filtering that allows users to focus scan results on relevant threats. The reporting system aggregates vulnerabilities by category and severity, providing both detailed findings and summary statistics. Users can filter results before or after scanning to customize output based on risk tolerance and compliance requirements.
Unique: Provides both pre-scan category filtering and post-scan severity filtering with aggregated summary statistics, enabling flexible result customization for different stakeholder needs and compliance requirements
vs alternatives: Integrated filtering and aggregation within the scanner versus separate post-processing tools, reducing friction for developers and security teams
