MCP Ethical Hacking
📚 Educational Purpose
This repository is intended for educational purposes to demonstrate the potential security risks in MCP implementations, and how to recognize and prevent security issues.
This repository contains "legitimate" tools for analyzing content from social media platforms using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It demonstrates both the capabilities and potential security implications of MCP tools.
These tools are provided for educational purposes only to demonstrate both the legitimate use cases and security considerations when developing and using MCP tools.
🛑 Disclaimer

🔍 The "legitimate" use-cases
MCP Toolkit: Social Media Content Analysis
The MCP Toolkit provides utilities for extracting and analyzing content from:
- Reddit: Extract discussions, comments, and metadata
- LinkedIn: Profile analysis and content strategy insights
📋 Components
The toolkit includes:
- Reddit Content Extractor: Extract and analyze discussions and comments
- LinkedIn Profile Analyzer: Content strategy analysis for LinkedIn profiles
- MCP Server Implementation: Both stdio and SSE transport methods
⚙️ Installation
See Reddit Readme :: Using embedded code in a remote image
See Linkedin Readme :: Using WebAssembly module embedded in a local image
⚠️ Security Considerations
This toolkit demonstrates several important security aspects of MCP tools:
Code Execution && Obfuscation Techniques: The repository shows how MCP tools can execute code in unexpected ways, including:
- Embedded code in images (steganography)
- WebAssembly module execution
- Remote data processing
Data Access: Tools can access and process data beyond what might be expected:
- Network requests to third-party services
- File system access
🔒 Best Practices
When developing or using MCP tools:
- Review Code: Always review the source code of MCP tools before use (run static code analyzers as well)
- Sandbox Execution: Run MCP tools in isolated environments
- Limit Permissions: Use principle of least privilege
- Monitor Activity: Enable logging and monitor network/file system access
- Authenticate Sources: Only use tools from trusted sources

falcon-mcp is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects AI agents with the CrowdStrike Falcon platform, enabling intelligent security analysis in agentic workflows. It provides programmatic access to essential security capabilities, including detections, incidents, and behaviors, establishing a foundation for advanced security operations and automation.
The GitGuardian MCP server allows your AI assistant to scan projects using over 500 secret detectors to prevent credential leaks. Developers can resolve security incidents without switching to the GitGuardian console, leveraging rich contextual data to enhance the agent's remediation capabilities, enabling rapid resolution and automated removal of hardcoded secrets.
The Cyberbro MCP Server is a simple application that extracts Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) from unstructured input and checks their reputation using multiple threat intelligence services. It leverages the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to facilitate interaction with the Cyberbro platform.
