Risk Summary

Safe With Normal Controls

Dep Visibility is the main signal, but overall risk remains within an acceptable range.

Potential impact: This finding indicates the tool should be reviewed before it is trusted.

Recommended action: No high-risk findings were detected in this scan, but you should still apply least-privilege defaults and rescan after changes.

Suggested policy: keep this tool behind manual approval, do not allow unattended runs, and re-scan after narrowing risky permissions.

Security Findings (12)

  • HighAS-012

    🔄Tool Drift

    Tool set changed silently at v0.9.0: 2 tool(s) added, 2 tool(s) removed without a version bump.

    + 2 added

    compliance.exposure.forecastcompliance.queue.optimize

    − 2 removed

    simulation.montecarlo.decisionsimulation.montecarlo.report

    Fix: The set of tools exposed by this server changed between scans of the same version — a sign the package was silently updated without a version bump. Audit the changelog and all tool definitions before trusting this server. Pin to a specific commit hash rather than a floating version tag.

  • HighAS-002

    ⚠️Excessive Permissions

    compliance.edd.report:tool declares network permission

    Fix: Tool requests broad permissions (exec/fs/network). Validate input parameters using Enums where possible, and restrict file system operations to explicit allowed directories.

  • LowAS-011

    ℹ️Missing Rate-Limit / Timeout

    compliance.edd.report:tool performs network or execution operations but declares no rate-limit, timeout, or retry configuration

    Fix: Declare explicit rate-limit, timeout, and retry configuration for all network and execution tools. Implement exponential back-off and surface resource state to the calling agent.

  • InfoAS-014

    ℹ️Dependency Inventory Unavailable ×9

    Tool did not expose metadata.dependencies or repo_url, so supply-chain coverage is limited.

    server.capabilitieswallet.ofac.reportwallet.ofac.screenwallet.ofac.batchcompliance.edd.reportcompliance.exposure.forecastcompliance.queue.optimizereport.pdf.generatereport.docx.generate

    Fix: Review and remediate the identified issue.

Scan this tool yourself

Reproduce this audit locally, integrate into CI, or let your agent audit its own tools.

Install once, then scan any MCP server:

$ curl -sfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AgentSafe-AI/tooltrust-scanner/main/install.sh | bash
$ tooltrust-scanner scan --server "npx -y matlab-mcp-core-server"

Adjust the package name if your npm registry name differs from the tool ID. View source
