Weaponize the MCP - OAuth Phishing and Mitigations
MCP, an extension layer for AI and LLM systems, now underpins many AI agents. At the same time, multiple attack vectors have been identified that build on this new AI and LLM context. The best known is MCP tool poisoning, where an agent is tricked into running harmful actions. This was discovered because of the combination of nondeterministic LLM behavior and the new concept of shared context.
While new attack methods emerge, long standing attack vectors are also being exposed by unsafe parts of the MCP specification.
