About Security Audit Tool

Security Audit Tool is an MCP server that checks npm package dependencies for known security vulnerabilities. It queries the remote npm registry for real-time results, aimed at developers who need to audit dependencies.

Key features

  1. 01Real-time vulnerability scanning of dependencies
  2. 02Severity levels: critical, high, moderate, low
  3. 03Works with npm, pnpm and yarn
  4. 04Automatic fix recommendations
  5. 05CVSS scores and CVE references in output

Use cases

  1. 01Auditing npm dependencies from Cline or Cursor
  2. 02Ranking vulnerabilities by severity to set fix priorities
  3. 03Reviewing vulnerability descriptions with CVE identifiers

MCP support

The project is an MCP server that MCP clients such as Cline and Cursor can call to receive structured vulnerability data.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
"mcpServers": {
"security-audit": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@smithery/cli"
]
}
}
}
Run commandnpx -y @smithery/cli

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

MCP Integration
Option 1: Using NPX (Recommended)
  1. Add MCP configuration to Cline /Cursor:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-security-audit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-security-audit"]
    }
  }
}

git clone https://github.com/qianniuspace/mcp-security-audit.git
cd mcp-security-audit
  1. Install dependencies and build:
npm install
npm run build
  1. Add MCP configuration to Cline /Cursor :
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-security-audit": {

  }]
}
2. When No Vulnerabilities Found (no-Severity-response.json)
{
  "content": [{
    "vulnerability": null,
    "metadata": {
      "timestamp": "2024-04-23T10:00:00.000Z",

    }
  }]
}

Development

For development reference, check the example response files in the public directory:

  • Severity-response.json : Example response when vulnerabilities are found (transformed from npm audit API response)
  • no-Severity-response.json : Example response when no vulnerabilities are found (transformed from npm audit API response)

Note: The example responses shown above are transformed from the raw npm audit API responses to provide a more structured format. The original npm audit API responses contain additional metadata and may have a different structure.

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
