About
MCP server exposing the Canvas LMS REST API (1,116 endpoints) for AI assistants
Security Report
Canvas API MCP server demonstrates solid security practices with proper authentication via Canvas tokens, careful input validation, and appropriate permission scoping for a student-focused LMS client. Token handling is correct (environment variables, not hardcoded), HTTP requests are properly sanitized, and dangerous operations like path traversal are actively prevented. Minor code quality issues around error handling and logging do not materially impact security. Supply chain analysis found 9 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (1 critical, 3 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.
