65
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
66
|
+
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

|
67
|
+
publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
|
|

|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
72
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
73
|

(except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
|
|
74
|
+
use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
|
|
75
|
+
where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
|
|
76

by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
|
|
77
|
+
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
|
|
78
|
+
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
|
|
79
|
+
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim
|
|
80
|
+
or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work or any Contribution
|
|
81
|
+
incorporated within the Work constitutes direct or contributory patent
|
|
82
|
+
infringement, then any patent licenses granted to You under this License
|
|
83
|
+
for that Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+
4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
|
|
86

|
+
|
|
90
|
+
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or Derivative
|
|
91
|
+
Works a copy of this License; and
|
|
92
|
+
|
|
93
|
+
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
|
|
94
|
+
stating that You changed the files; and
|
|
95
|
+
|
|
96
|
+
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
|
|
97
|
+
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
|
|
98
|
+
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
|
|
99
|
+
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
|
|
100
|
+
the Derivative Works; and
|
|
101
|
+
|
|
102

|
103

distribution, You must include a readable copy of the
|
|
104
|
+
attribution notices contained within such NOTICE file, in
|
|
105
|
+
at least one of the following places: within a NOTICE text
|
|
106
|
+
file distributed as part of the Derivative Works; within
|
|
107
|
+
the Source form or documentation, if provided along with the
|
|
108
|
+
Derivative Works; or, within a display generated by the
|
|
109
|
+
Derivative Works, if and wherever such third-party notices
|
|
110
|
+
normally appear. The contents of the NOTICE file are for
|
|
111
|
+
informational purposes only and do not modify the License.
|
|
112
|
+
You may add Your own attribution notices within Derivative
|
|
113
|
+
Works that You distribute, alongside or as an addendum to
|
|
114
|
+
the NOTICE text from the Work, provided that such additional
|
|
115
|
+
attribution notices cannot be construed as modifying the License.
|
|
116
|
+
|
|
117
|
+
You may add Your own license statement for Your modifications and
|
|
118
|
+
may provide additional grant of rights to use, copy, modify, merge,
|
|
119
|
+
publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the
|
|

|
123
|
+
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
|
|
124

|
|
125
|
+
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
|
|
126
|
+
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
|
|
127
|
+
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
|
|
128
|
+
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
|
|
131
|
+
names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
|
|
132
|
+
except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
|
|
133
|
+
origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
|
|
134
|
+
|
|
135
|
+
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
|
|
136
|
+
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
|
|
137
|
+
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
|
|
138
|
+
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
|
|
139
|
+
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
|
|
140
|
+
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
|
|
141
|
+
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
|
|
142
|
+
appropriateness of using or reproducing the Work and assume any
|
|
143
|
+
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
|
|
144
|
+
|
|
145
|
+
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
|
|
146
|
+
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
|
|
147
|
+
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
|
|
148
|
+
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
|
|
149
|
+
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
|
|
150
|
+
incidental, or exemplary damages of any character arising as a
|
|
151
|
+
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
|
|
152
|
+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
|
|
153
|
+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or all other
|
|
154
|
+
commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor has been
|
|
155
|
+
advised of the possibility of such damages.
|
|
156
|
+
|
|
157
|
+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
|
|
158
|
+
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
|
|
159
|
+
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
|
|
160
|
+
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
|
|
161
|
+
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may offer such
|
|
162
|
+
obligations only on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility,
|
|
163
|
+
not on behalf of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to
|
|
164
|
+
indemnify, defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any
|
|
165
|
+
liability incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor
|
|
166
|
+
by reason of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

|
+
| Matcher | Description |
|
|
267
|
+
|---------|-------------|
|
|
268
|
+
| `tool` | Glob pattern on the tool that produced the response (requires request-response correlation) |
|
|
269
|
+
| `server` | Glob pattern on the server name |
|
|
270
|
+
| `secrets` | When `true`, scans response for secret patterns (uses same `secrets.patterns` config) |
|
|
271
|
+
| `response_contains` | Case-insensitive substring match against response text |
|
|
272
|
+
| `response_contains_regex` | Regex match against response text |
|
|
273
|
+
| `response_size_exceeds` | Byte size threshold for the serialized response |

### Named profiles
|
|
285
|
+
|
|
286
|
+
Pick a security baseline when initializing:
|
|
287
|
+
|
|
288
|
+
```bash
|
|
289
|
+
mcpwall init --profile local-dev # sensible defaults, good starting point
|
|
290
|
+
mcpwall init --profile company-laptop # adds GCP/Azure/package-manager credential blocks
|
|
291
|
+
mcpwall init --profile strict # deny-by-default whitelist mode
|
|
292
|
+
```
|
|
293
|
+
|
|
294
|
+
Each profile is a YAML file in `rules/profiles/` — copy and customize as needed.
|
|
295
|
+
|
|
296
|
+
### Server-specific recipes
|
|
297
|
+
|
|
298
|
+
Drop-in configs for common MCP servers, in `rules/servers/`:
|
|
299
|
+
|
|
300
|
+
- `filesystem-mcp.yaml` — restricts reads/writes/listings to `${PROJECT_DIR}`, blocks dotfiles and traversal
|
|
301
|
+
- `github-mcp.yaml` — logs all file reads, blocks broad private repo enumeration
|
|
302
|
+
- `shell-mcp.yaml` — adds network command and package install blocks
|
|
303
|
+
|
|
216
304
|
### Built-in rule packs
|
|
217
305
|
|
|
218
306
|
- `rules/default.yml` — sensible defaults (blocks SSH, .env, credentials, dangerous commands, secrets)
|
|
219
307
|
- `rules/strict.yml` — deny-by-default paranoid mode (whitelist only project reads/writes)

## Security Design
|
|
253
364
|
|
|
365
|
+
- **Bidirectional scanning**: Both inbound requests and outbound responses are evaluated against rules
|
|
254
366
|
- **Fail closed on invalid config**: Bad regex in a rule crashes at startup, never silently passes traffic
|
|
367
|
+
- **Fail open on outbound errors**: If response parsing fails, the raw response is forwarded (never blocks legitimate traffic)
|
|
255
368
|
- **Args redacted on deny**: Blocked tool call arguments are never written to logs
|
|
369
|
+
- **Surgical redaction**: Secrets in responses are replaced in-place, preserving the JSON-RPC response structure
|
|
256
370
|
- **Path traversal defense**: `not_under` matcher uses `path.resolve()` to prevent `../` bypass
|
|
257
371
|
- **Pre-compiled regexes**: All patterns compiled once at startup for consistent performance
|
|
258
372
|
- **No network**: Zero cloud calls, zero telemetry, runs entirely local
