Security Report

1.2

Use Caution1.2Critical Risk

The UnClick MCP server presents significant security concerns, primarily around API key handling and lack of authentication mechanisms for a multi-API gateway. While the codebase appears to be actively maintained with extensive tool integrations, the server requires an API key from unclick.world but lacks evidence of proper token validation, scoping, or secure credential management. The broad permissions required to call 450+ third-party endpoints create a large attack surface, and the tool wiring file shows patterns that suggest API keys are passed through function parameters rather than securely managed, creating credential leakage risks. Supply chain analysis found 3 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 3 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue (1 critical, 0 high severity).
