Security Report

5.2
Moderate5.2Moderate Risk

mcpsurfr is a keyless local web search server whose permissions match its purpose: it makes outbound HTTP requests to search engines and fetched pages, reads bundled skill and model files, and reads a few MCPSURFR_* environment variables. No malicious patterns, shell execution, hardcoded secrets, or data exfiltration were found in the visible code. The main caveat is that the fetch helpers and the deep_research tool body are not included in the provided source, so SSRF and redirect handling could not be fully verified. Supply chain analysis found 4 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 3 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.
