CAUTIONPublisher claims: "🛡️ MCP AI Powered Threat Intelligence - Revolutionizing Cybersecurity | Built by Arjun Trivedi (4R9UN)" Observed in sandbox: calls astral.sh only, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
Is [email protected] safe to install?
KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (2 scenarios) on 2026-10-31 and scored it 68/100 (Caution). It is not known to be malicious, but it has behaviour or code a security policy should decide on before install. Notable findings: Privileged sudo command; Pipe-to-shell pattern; Access to sensitive file paths. Summary: calls astral.sh only, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
