Security Report

5.2
Moderate5.2Moderate Risk

This is a well-structured MCP server for the Attestd vulnerability checking API. Authentication is properly required for sensitive operations, code quality is solid with good error handling, and permissions are appropriately scoped to network calls only. Minor code quality observations exist but do not impact security. Supply chain analysis found 2 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (1 critical, 1 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

@attestd/mcp

npm version smithery badge

Attestd checks whether a dependency version has exploitable CVEs or a confirmed supply-chain compromise. One API call returns a structured risk response.

Official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Attestd. Exposes CVE risk and supply-chain checks as tools for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and any MCP-compatible client.

Get a free API key · Full docs

  • stdio transport: run via npx -y @attestd/mcp with no global install.
  • check_package_vulnerability: wraps GET /v1/check using @attestd/sdk.
  • check_batch_vulnerabilities: checks up to 100 packages in one call. Use for lockfile and manifest audits.
  • list_covered_products: returns Attestd-covered products. With an API key, returns live data from GET /v1/products. Without a key, returns the static bundled infrastructure list.
  • get_cve_details: returns CVSS, EPSS, KEV status, and affected products for a single CVE id.
  • get_usage: returns remaining quota for the authenticated key (GET /v1/usage).

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 18+
  • An Attestd API key from the portal. Required for check_package_vulnerability, check_batch_vulnerabilities, get_cve_details, get_usage, and live list_covered_products.

Claude Code / MCP config

Add to ~/.claude/mcp.json or project .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "attestd": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@attestd/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ATTESTD_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Optional: override the API base URL (e.g. dev):

"env": {
  "ATTESTD_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here",
  "ATTESTD_BASE_URL": "https://dev.api.attestd.io"
}

Tools

check_package_vulnerability

ArgumentTypeDescription
productstringProduct slug (nginx, postgresql, litellm, …)
versionstringExact version (1.20.0)

Returns JSON with:

FieldMeaning
outsideCoveragetrue if the product is not covered. Unknown risk, not safe.
riskStatecritical | high | elevated | low | none | null when outside coverage
riskFactorsRisk factor vocabulary driving riskState
maxEpssHighest EPSS probability across matching CVEs
activelyExploitedCISA KEV signal
remoteExploitabletrue if any matching CVE is remotely exploitable
authenticationRequiredtrue only when all matching CVEs require authentication
patchAvailable / fixedVersionPatch guidance
confidenceSynthesis confidence 0.0–1.0
cveIdsCVE IDs contributing to the risk assessment
typosquatPackage name integrity: detected, resembles, confidence, ecosystem (SDK 0.5 runtime; extra fields are omitted)
messageExplanation when outsideCoverage is true
supplyChainCompromised / supplyChainDescriptionPyPI/npm supply-chain signal

On invalid/missing API key or rate limit, returns isError: true with a JSON error string.

check_batch_vulnerabilities

ArgumentTypeDescription
itemsarrayArray of { product, version } objects. Maximum 100 per call. Each item costs one API call.

Quota is checked upfront. If the batch would exceed your monthly quota, a 429 is returned before any calls are billed.

Returns JSON with count and results. Supported items include the same fields as check_package_vulnerability minus typosquat. Outside-coverage items return only product, version, outsideCoverage: true, and riskState: null.

list_covered_products

No arguments. With an API key, returns live JSON from GET /v1/products:

FieldMeaning
source"live" when fetched from the API
totalCombined count of CVE products and supply chain packages
cveProductsCVE infrastructure slugs with display names
supplyChainPackagesMonitored PyPI/npm packages

Without an API key, returns the static bundled list:

FieldMeaning
source"static"
countNumber of bundled infrastructure products
productsArray of { slug, display } entries

get_cve_details

ArgumentTypeDescription
cve_idstringCVE identifier, e.g. CVE-2021-44228

Returns JSON with:

FieldMeaning
foundtrue when the CVE is in Attestd's database; false on 404 (not an error)
cveIdCVE identifier
descriptionNVD description text
cvssScore / cvssVectorCVSS base score and vector
activelyExploitedCISA KEV signal
remoteExploitableRemotely exploitable
authenticationRequiredAuthentication required for exploitation
affectedProductsAttestd product slugs affected by this CVE
epssScore / epssPercentileEPSS probability and percentile
sourcePublishedAt / lastCheckedAtISO timestamps

When the CVE is not found, returns { "found": false, "cveId": "..." } without isError. On invalid/missing API key or rate limit, returns isError: true with a JSON error string.

get_usage

No arguments. Requires an API key. Returns JSON from GET /v1/usage:

FieldMeaning
tierAccount plan tier
keyCallsThisMonthCalls billed to this key in the current period
accountCallsThisMonthCalls billed across all keys on the account
includedCallsMonthly included call cap
billingPeriodStart / billingPeriodEndISO timestamps
overageCalls / estimatedOverageUsdOverage vs the included cap

On invalid/missing API key or rate limit, returns isError: true with a JSON error string.
