The severity is low because accessing this reference information poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name and description indicate retrieval of a reference list: 'Access a comprehensive list of insider transaction types' and 'provides details on various transaction actions'. No parameters mentioned for executing trades or modifying data." ## Use case AI agents call getInsiderTransactionTypes to retrieve information from Financial Modeling Prep MCP Server without modifying anything.
