Security Report

4.2
Use Caution4.2High Risk

The Nullcone MCP server is a well-structured threat intelligence platform with reasonable security posture for its intended use case. Authentication is appropriately optional for read operations on a public threat feed, and permissions align with the server's purpose (network I/O for threat data, environment variables for configuration). However, there are several moderate-severity issues: environment variable exposure of database tokens in logs, incomplete input validation in SQL queries, use of broad exception handlers, and a public endpoint that disables destructive operations but lacks explicit rate-limiting or DOS protections. The code quality is generally good with clear documentation, but these gaps should be addressed before production deployment. Supply chain analysis found 3 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 3 high severity).

Nullcone MCP Server

Real-time threat intelligence for AI agents, exposed as a Model Context Protocol server. Check IPs, domains, URLs, hashes, CVEs, prompt-injection payloads, and malicious AI-skill / MCP-tool definitions against the Nullcone network — 890K+ IOCs, free, no API key.

Backed by nullcone.ai.

Use it (hosted — nothing to install)

The server is hosted at https://nullcone.ai/mcp over streamable HTTP. Add it to any MCP client:

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http nullcone https://nullcone.ai/mcp

Cursor / other MCP clients — add to your MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nullcone": {
      "url": "https://nullcone.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

No signup or token required. Read tools and IOC submission are open; destructive tools (e.g. revoke_ioc) are disabled on the public endpoint.

Tools

30+ tools including:

  • lookup_ioc(value) — check any indicator against the feed
  • recent_threats(limit, min_severity) — current threat picture
  • submit_ioc(...) / submit_batch(...) — contribute indicators
  • check_prompt(...) — sub-millisecond prompt-injection lookup
  • validate_skill(...) / scan_skill_content(...) — vet MCP tools / AI skills before loading
  • poll_since(last_id) — incremental sync, no persistent connection
  • get_stats(), list_families(), search_by_type(...), and more

Resources: threat://stats, threat://recent, threat://families, threat://family/{name}, threat://ioc/{value}. Prompts: analyze_ioc, triage_alert, threat_brief.

Self-host

The server is built on the public nullcone SDK.

pip install -r requirements.txt
MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http MCP_PORT=8001 python server.py

Or with Docker:

docker build -t nullcone-mcp .
docker run -p 8001:8001 nullcone-mcp

Set MCP_PUBLIC=1 to run an anonymous public endpoint (disables destructive tools); omit it for full local control over stdio (MCP_TRANSPORT=stdio).
