eip-mcp 0.2.1

MCP server for the Exploit Intelligence Platform — vulnerability and exploit intelligence for AI assistants

Exploit Intel Platform MCP Server

Package/command: eip-mcp

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives AI assistants access to the Exploit Intelligence Platform — 370K+ vulnerabilities and 105K+ exploits from NVD, CISA KEV, EPSS, ExploitDB, Metasploit, GitHub, and more.

Part of the same project family:

• eip-search — terminal client
• eip-mcp — MCP server for AI assistants

Highlights

• Give AI assistants real-time vulnerability and exploit intelligence
• Query CVEs with rich filters and ranked exploit context
• Include AI exploit analysis, MITRE ATT&CK mapping, and trojan indicators
• Generate pentest findings directly from CVE data
• Every exploit includes a clickable source URL (GitHub, ExploitDB, Metasploit)
• Nuclei templates include description, impact, and remediation text

What This Enables

With this MCP server, your AI assistant can:

• Search vulnerabilities with 15+ filters (severity, vendor, product, EPSS, KEV, Nuclei, year, date range)
• Search exploits by source, language, author, GitHub stars, or LLM classification
• Get full CVE intelligence briefs with ranked exploits and trojan warnings
• Find all exploits for a specific CVE, vendor, or product
• Resolve alternate IDs (EDB-XXXXX, GHSA-XXXXX) to their CVE
• Discover exact product names for any vendor (CPE product name lookup)
• Look up exploit authors and their work
• Browse CWE categories and vendor threat landscapes
• Audit a tech stack for exploitable vulnerabilities
• Generate pentest report findings from real CVE data (all sections present with N/A when data is absent)
• Retrieve exploit source code for analysis
• See MITRE ATT&CK techniques and deception indicators for trojans

Installation

Requirements

• Python 3.10 or newer (check with python3 --version or python --version)
• pip (comes with Python on most systems)
• An MCP-compatible AI client (Cursor IDE, Claude Desktop, etc.)

macOS

# Install Python 3 via Homebrew if needed
brew install python3

# Recommended: pipx (isolated install, eip-mcp command available globally)
brew install pipx
pipx install eip-mcp

# Alternative: virtual environment
python3 -m venv ~/.venvs/eip-mcp
source ~/.venvs/eip-mcp/bin/activate
pip install eip-mcp

Kali Linux / Debian / Ubuntu

# Python 3 is pre-installed on Kali. Install pip if needed:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y python3-pip python3-venv

# Recommended: pipx (isolated install, eip-mcp command available globally)
sudo apt install -y pipx
pipx install eip-mcp

# Alternative: virtual environment
python3 -m venv ~/.venvs/eip-mcp
source ~/.venvs/eip-mcp/bin/activate
pip install eip-mcp

Kali users: If you see error: externally-managed-environment, use pipx or a virtual environment. Kali 2024+ enforces PEP 668 which blocks global pip installs.

Windows

# Install Python 3 from https://python.org (check "Add to PATH" during install)

# Option 1: pipx
pip install pipx
pipx install eip-mcp

# Option 2: virtual environment
python -m venv %USERPROFILE%\.venvs\eip-mcp
%USERPROFILE%\.venvs\eip-mcp\Scripts\activate
pip install eip-mcp

Arch Linux / Manjaro

sudo pacman -S python python-pip python-pipx
pipx install eip-mcp

From Source (all platforms)

git clone [e-mail]:exploit-intel/eip-mcp.git
cd eip-mcp
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate      # Linux/macOS
# .venv\Scripts\activate       # Windows
pip install -e .

Connecting to Your AI Client

Cursor IDE

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your workspace (or globally at ~/.cursor/mcp.json):

If installed with pipx (recommended):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eip": {
      "command": "eip-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

If installed in a virtual environment:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eip": {
      "command": "/absolute/path/to/.venvs/eip-mcp/bin/eip-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Note: When using a virtual environment, use the absolute path to the eip-mcp binary inside it. On macOS/Linux: ~/.venvs/eip-mcp/bin/eip-mcp. On Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.venvs\eip-mcp\Scripts\eip-mcp.exe.

Claude Desktop

macOS — add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eip": {
      "command": "eip-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Windows — add to %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eip": {
      "command": "eip-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

If your AI client can't find eip-mcp, use the full path to the binary (see virtual environment note above).

Verify

After restarting your AI client, you should see 16 tools available. Try asking:

"Show me all trojan exploits"

Troubleshooting

Problem	Solution
MCP server not showing up	If using a venv, use the full absolute path to the eip-mcp binary
command not found: eip-mcp	Make sure your venv is activated, or use pipx which manages PATH automatically
externally-managed-environment	Use pipx or a virtual environment (see install instructions above)
Connection timeout errors	Check that you can reach https://exploit-intel.com from your machine
0 tools showing	Restart Cursor/Claude Desktop after editing the MCP config

• Numerics: CVSS 0-10, EPSS 0-1, per_page 1-25
• Enums: Severity, sort, ecosystem validated against allowlists
• File paths: .., absolute paths, null bytes all blocked
• Technology names: Alphanumeric + dots/hyphens/spaces, max 5 items

Response Safety

• Exploit code capped at 50KB
• All responses are plain text (no executable content)
• Error messages are generic (no internal API leakage)
• Trojan exploits are explicitly flagged

Network Safety

• API base URL hardcoded to https://exploit-intel.com
• TLS verification enabled
• 30-second timeout on all calls
• Optional API key via EIP_API_KEY environment variable

API Key (Optional)

For higher rate limits, set an API key in the MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eip": {
      "command": "eip-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {
        "EIP_API_KEY": "your-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

No API key is required. The public API allows 60 requests/minute.

Building Packages

Build Dependencies

Target	Requirements
make build	Python 3, build module (pip install build)
make check / make pypi	twine (pip install twine)
make deb	Docker
make tag-release	Python 3 (version bump only — Codeberg Actions handles the rest)
make release	All of the above + tea CLI (codeberg.org/gitea/tea)

Install everything at once:

pip install build twine
# Docker: https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/
# tea CLI: https://codeberg.org/gitea/tea

PyPI (wheel + sdist)

make build          # build dist/*.whl and dist/*.tar.gz
make check          # validate with twine
make pypi           # upload to PyPI

.deb Packages

Build for a single distro or all four supported targets:

make deb DISTRO=ubuntu-jammy      # Ubuntu 22.04
make deb DISTRO=ubuntu-noble      # Ubuntu 24.04
make deb DISTRO=debian-bookworm   # Debian 12
make deb DISTRO=kali              # Kali Rolling
make deb                          # all four

Releasing

One-time setup: add PYPI_API_TOKEN and RELEASE_TOKEN as repository secrets in Codeberg (Settings → Actions → Secrets).

Automated release (recommended) — bumps version, commits, tags, and pushes. Codeberg Actions builds PyPI packages + all 4 .debs, uploads to PyPI, and creates a release with artifacts attached:

make tag-release VERSION=0.2.0

Local release (alternative) — does everything locally without CI:

make release VERSION=0.2.0

Dependencies

• mcp>=1.2.0 — Official MCP Python SDK
• httpx>=0.27.0 — HTTP client
• Python 3.10+
