Mcp Sec Scanner
What is Mcp Sec Scanner
mcp_sec_scanner is a tool designed to detect risks within the MCP/API ecosystem by analyzing both the service endpoints and the source code of MCP servers.
Use cases
Use cases include security assessments of MCP services, vulnerability scanning of source code, and ensuring compliance with security standards in software development.
How to use
To use mcp_sec_scanner, first scan the target IP range using masscan to identify open ports. Then, analyze the results for SSE format detection. Alternatively, use nmap scripts to check for ‘Content-Type: text/event-stream’. For source code analysis, collect server lists from mcpso/github, clone the repositories, and utilize LLM for unexpected behavior and vulnerability detection.
Key features
Key features include detection of SSE format in MCP services, source code collection and analysis, unexpected behavior detection, and security vulnerability identification.
Where to use
mcp_sec_scanner is applicable in cybersecurity, software development, and API management, particularly in environments where MCP services are utilized.
Clients Supporting MCP
The following are the main client software that supports the Model Context Protocol. Click the link to visit the official website for more information.

The main purpose is to detect and analyze the SSE format of the MCP Service
Firstly, use masscan to scan the target IP range’s port and then analyze the returned results to detect whether there is an event: endpoint.
Or use nmap’s script to directly detect the ‘Content-Type: text/event-stream’.
Then use sse_tool.py to perform the actual test.
- source_code
The main purpose is to collect and analyze the source code of the MCP server
Firstly, collect the server list from the mcpso/github,
Then clone/pull all the source code
Finally, use LLM to analyze the source code
