Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public GitHub issue for security problems.

Email info@molecare.co.uk with:

  • what the issue is and where in the code it lives
  • how to reproduce it
  • what an attacker could do with it

You should get an acknowledgement within 3 working days. We will tell you when we have a fix and will credit you in the release notes unless you would rather we did not.

Scope

This repository is the MoleCare MCP server — a developer tool. In scope:

  • vulnerabilities in this server's code (injection, SSRF, path traversal, unsafe deserialisation, rate-limit bypass)
  • tool definitions that leak configuration or credentials into responses
  • dependency vulnerabilities that are actually reachable from this code

Out of scope for this repo (but still worth telling us about at the same address):

  • the MoleCare mobile apps, web app, or production API
  • issues that require a contributor to have already put real production credentials in their own .env

Data safety

MCP tools that accept a userId return personal health data if you configure them against a real backend. That is a deliberate capability, not a bug — but it means:

  • the security boundary is your API's authentication, not this process
  • run against localhost for development, demos, and screenshots
  • never record a demo or file a bug report using real patient data
  • never attach a real skin photo to an issue

If you believe a tool in this repo leaks data it should not, treat that as a vulnerability and report it privately using the process above.
