Microsoft MCP Gateway

by MicrosoftUpdated today

“Microsoft's official Kubernetes reverse proxy and management layer for MCP servers. Provides RESTful APIs for deploying, updating, and managing MCP server adapters, dynamic tool routing via a Tool Gateway Router, session-aware stateful routing, and authentication/authorization via Azure Entra ID with role-based access control. Ships with a built-in management portal for server inspection and testing. Note: the Agents and Sessions subsystem is preview and single-replica only, not yet suitable for multi-tenant production without external sandboxing and shared session storage.”— Microsoft

03SECURITYWHAT WE CHECKED
Security flags foundOur static scan found signals worth reviewing before you trust this with an agent. See exactly what, per check, below.
Telemetry disclosureUndisclosed egress detected.Static checks found network calls the docs do not mention. Disclosed telemetry is common and fine, silent telemetry is the finding.
Security tierTier 3, Credentialed.Handles a real credential or real external access. What tiers mean
Install-time hooks & dependenciesno flags
Code that runs when you install it, before you ever call a tool.
Runs code / shell commands1 finding
MEDIUMportal/src/components/McpTestPanel.tsx:1022 — Code-execution surface: a exec/spawn call site. The server can run commands on the host; review what it executes and whether any input reaches it.
Secrets & credentialsno flags
How it reads, logs, or transmits keys and tokens. Scam/wallet-drainer patterns land here.
Network calls out1 finding
MEDIUMportal/src/auth/msal.ts:31 — Hardcoded external endpoint 'login.microsoftonline.com'. STATIC signal only: this flags a declared destination for human or dynamic-egress confirmation; it does NOT assert exfiltration.
Prompt-injection passthrough1 finding
INFOportal/src/api/client.ts — HEURISTIC: this file both fetches external content and returns content as tool output, with no obvious sanitization. External text returned into tool output can carry instructions an agent obeys (prompt-injection passthrough). Confirm manually; this is a hint, not proof.
Permission scope breadthno flags
How much access it asks for versus what its job needs.
How to read this: these are static checks over the source at a point in time. They catch the patterns above, not everything. Absence of a flag is not absence of danger, and a tool that runs cleanly can still behave differently once installed. We do not call any tool simply "safe". Runtime-behavior checks are the next layer we are adding.
