CVE-2022-29244high · fixedCVSS 7.5

Packing does not respect root-level ignore files in workspaces

### Impact `npm pack` ignores root-level `.gitignore` & `.npmignore` file exclusion directives when run in a workspace or with a workspace flag (ie. `--workspaces`, `--workspace=<name>`). Anyone who has run `npm pack` or `npm publish` with workspaces, as of [v7.9.0](https://github.com/npm/cli/releases/tag/v7.9.0) & [v7.13.0](https://github.com/npm/cli/releases/tag/v7.13.0) respectively, may be affected and have published files into the npm registry they did not intend to include. ### Patch - Up

CVE-2018-7408high · fixedCVSS 7.8

Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource in NPM

An issue was discovered in an npm 5.7.0 2018-02-21 pre-release (marked as "next: 5.7.0" and therefore automatically installed by an "npm upgrade -g npm" command, and also announced in the vendor's blog without mention of pre-release status). It might allow local users to bypass intended filesystem access restrictions because ownerships of /etc and /usr directories are being changed unexpectedly, related to a "correctMkdir" issue.

CVE-2013-4116low · fixed

Local Privilege Escalation in npm

Affected versions of `npm` use predictable temporary file names during archive unpacking. If an attacker can create a symbolic link at the location of one of these temporary file names, the attacker can arbitrarily write to any file that the user which owns the `npm` process has permission to write to, potentially resulting in local privilege escalation. ## Recommendation Update to version 1.3.3 or later.

npm CLI exposing sensitive information through logs

Versions of the npm CLI prior to 6.14.6 are vulnerable to an information exposure vulnerability through log files. The CLI supports URLs like `<protocol>://[<user>[:<password>]@]<hostname>[:<port>][:][/]<path>`. The password value is not redacted and is printed to stdout and also to any generated log files.

npm Vulnerable to Global node_modules Binary Overwrite

Versions of the npm CLI prior to 6.13.4 are vulnerable to a Global node_modules Binary Overwrite. It fails to prevent existing globally-installed binaries to be overwritten by other package installations. For example, if a package was installed globally and created a `serve` binary, any subsequent installs of packages that also create a `serve` binary would overwrite the first binary. This will not overwrite system binaries but only binaries put into the global node_modules directory. This b

Decodo MCP Server

Connect LLMs and AI agents to live web data using MCP (Model Context Protocol). The Decodo MCP Server lets you scrape websites, search engines, eCommerce platforms, and social media directly from AI tools like Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf, all without the need to build scraping infrastructure from scratch.

Structured outputs in JSON, Markdown, and screenshots
Server-side JavaScript rendering and anti-bot handling
125M+ IPs across 195+ locations

What is Decodo MCP server?

The Decodo MCP Server is a web scraping layer for AI agents. It connects MCP-compatible clients to Decodo's Web Scraping API, enabling:

Web scraping for LLMs
Real-time data retrieval for RAG
AI agent browsing and research
Structured data extraction from dynamic websites

Instead of maintaining proxies, parsers, and retry logic, you get a single integration point for reliable web data access.

Why use MCP for web scraping?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the emerging standard for connecting AI agents to external tools and data sources. With MCP:

Agents can call tools dynamically
Integrations stay standardized
Workflows scale across environments

The Decodo MCP Server gives your agents reliable, production-ready web access through this standard.

Key features

Web scraping for AI agents, no infrastructure required. Scrape any website, including JavaScript-heavy pages, without handling proxy rotation, CAPTCHA solving, or anti-bot systems.

Structured outputs for LLM workflows. Markdown (LLM-ready), JSON (for structured pipelines), and screenshots (for visual context), built for RAG pipelines, AI research agents, and automation flows.

Built-in support for popular targets. Ready-made tools for Google and Bing (SERPs), Amazon, Walmart, and Target (eCommerce), TikTok and YouTube (social media), and ChatGPT and Perplexity (AI search).

Global proxy infrastructure. 115M+ residential IPs, 195+ geo-locations, and a 99.99% success rate on even the most protected targets.

Modular MCP toolsets. Enable only what you need: web, search, ecommerce, social_media, ai for cleaner tool selection and better agent performance.

Fast time to value. From API key to first scrape in minutes, no setup overhead.

Use cases

Use the Decodo MCP Server when you need web scraping for AI agents, structured data extraction at scale, reliable access to dynamic websites, real-time data for RAG, or an alternative to building scraping infrastructure from scratch. Common scenarios:

AI-powered web scraping – give LLMs the ability to collect fresh data instead of relying on static training data.
RAG with live data – pull real-time Google, Bing, and AI search results into retrieval pipelines.
eCommerce intelligence – track product prices, listings, and sellers across marketplaces without getting blocked.
Social media data collection – gather posts, channels, and engagement data from TikTok and YouTube.
Travel and price aggregation – build tools that collect live pricing and availability across websites.

Quick start
