CAUTIONPublisher claims: "Damn Vulnerable MCP - A FastAPI-based MCP challenges project" Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
Is [email protected] safe to install?
KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (1 scenario) on 2026-11-03 and scored it 74/100 (Caution). It is not known to be malicious, but it has behaviour or code a security policy should decide on before install. Notable findings: Stripe-like API key pattern detected; AWS access key pattern detected; AWS access key pattern detected. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
