Security Report
PubCrawl is a well-structured MCP server that securely wraps publicly-available biomedical APIs (PubMed, FDA, eMC, ClinicalTrials.gov). Authentication is appropriately minimal (optional NCBI API key via env vars), code quality is good with proper input validation and error handling, and permissions align with its stated purpose. Minor findings include broad exception handling and lack of request signing for some API interactions, but no security vulnerabilities or dangerous patterns were identified. Supply chain analysis found 9 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (3 critical, 2 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.
