Testing MCP Server Security

When to Use

  • During authorized assessments of AI agents/IDEs (Cursor, Claude Code/Desktop, Flowise) that load MCP servers
  • When reviewing third-party or marketplace MCP servers/skills before or after deployment
  • When an MCP server runs locally over stdio and inherits the user's OS credentials
  • When testing whether tool descriptions, schemas, or outputs can inject instructions into the model
  • When assessing MCP config trust, update/supply-chain risk, and transport-layer auth gaps
