Security Report

5.2

Moderate5.2Moderate Risk

This MCP server for video transcription and metadata extraction is well-structured with appropriate authentication via a hosted gateway and proper error handling. However, there are moderate-severity concerns around shell command execution via yt-dlp without sufficient input validation, potential information disclosure through detailed error logging, and some unsafe file handling patterns that could be exploited in edge cases. Supply chain analysis found 3 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 1 high severity).
