Security Report

2.2
Use Caution2.2Critical Risk

This MCP server implements citation formatting with reasonable auth checks and rate limiting, but contains several security concerns that require attention. The server makes unauthenticated HTTP requests to external APIs (Crossref, Semantic Scholar), implements rate limiting only client-side without reliable enforcement, and the auth_middleware relies on external network calls that fail open, allowing unlimited access if the verification endpoint is unreachable. Additionally, the codebase exhibits concerning patterns including hardcoded external URLs, environment variable exposure via monetization layers, and weak input validation on citation formatting functions. Supply chain analysis found 3 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 3 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.
