What the code does

We read the source, 3 d ago · rules 995398eba69f

A tool parameter reaches a dangerous call

A value the model can set ends up inside a file or shell call. That is not a flaw by itself — for a terminal server it is the job — but it is where things go wrong when it is not.

A tool parameter reaches a file or shell call make_video.output → src/mcp.js:71
    const img = await loadImage(fs.readFileSync(r.output));
Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

    const p = spawn(FFMPEG, args, { stdio: ['ignore', 'ignore', 'pipe'] });

That is not a flaw by itself — but it is where things go wrong when it is not the job. We re-read this code on every release. Watch it and you hear from us the day another one appears.
