Risk Assessment
- MCP server exposes Terraform Registry APIs and HCP Terraform/Enterprise APIs which could enable unauthorized infrastructure operations if misconfigured
- StreamableHTTP transport requires environment variable configuration (MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS) to prevent DNS rebinding attacks, indicating potential security misuse vectors
- Workspace operations include create/update/delete capabilities which could modify production infrastructure if credentials are compromised
- README explicitly warns about not using with untrusted MCP clients or LLMs, indicating known security limitations
- Official vendor repository (HashiCorp) reduces risk, but the tool itself manages sensitive cloud operations and credentials
