What the publisher says
From the Vdb repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
vdb-mcp
mcp-name: kr.ai.vdb/vdb
MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for VDB — the AI-aware vulnerability database. Lets Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Continue, and any MCP client check packages while generating code: known CVEs, slopsquatting (LLM-hallucinated package names an attacker may have registered), CISA KEV status, MCP-server trust profiles, and more.
Quick start
uvx vdb-mcp # or: pipx run vdb-mcpClaude Desktop (claudedesktopconfig.json) / Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"vdb": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["vdb-mcp"] }
}
}No install at all — point any streamable-HTTP MCP client at the hosted endpoint:
{
"mcpServers": {
"vdb": { "url": "https://vdb.ai.kr/mcp" }
}
}That's it — the server talks to the hosted instance at https://vdb.ai.kr by default. Anonymous use gets a free per-IP trial; add an API key for unmetered access (free at ):
{
"mcpServers": {
"vdb": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["vdb-mcp"],
"env": { "VDB_API_TOKEN": "vdb_..." }
}
}
}Tools
Environment
Why
LLMs hallucinate package names; attackers register them (slopsquatting). LLMs also happily recommend packages with known RCEs. VDB gives your agent a guardrail: one tool call before npm install / pip install. See for the one-line prompt variant that needs no MCP at all.
License
Elastic License 2.0 — free to use, including inside commercial organizations and CI. The only restrictions: you may not offer this software to third parties as a hosted or managed service, or resell it as a product. Commercial licensing beyond that: . API usage is governed by the VDB service terms regardless of how you call it.

Vdb: common questions
- Is Vdb MCP server safe?
- Mostly: it is graded B (83/100). Read the Vdb safety report
- How do I install Vdb?
- It runs remotely at vdb.ai.kr. Add it to Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Desktop with the snippets above, or call it through the mcp.market gateway without installing anything.
- Does Vdb need an API key?
- Yes. The registry entry asks for
VDB_API_TOKEN. - Is Vdb maintained?
- The last commit was 52 days ago (2026-09-13). The latest release is v0.2.8.
- Is Vdb up?
- 100% of our last 28 checks got an answer. We check remote servers about four times a day.
- What can I use instead of Vdb?
- Servers from other publishers that do the same job: Decionis MCP server, Kiln MCP server and Vibe Check MCP server.
- How does Vdb compare with other AI and agents MCP servers?
- safety score 83/100 (higher than 68% of 4,460 AI and agents servers); uptime 100% (of our recent checks; the typical remote AI and agents server answers 100%); response time 2,033 ms (faster than 4% of 2,331 AI and agents servers). Full comparison.
