Edison Flores has detailed a method for sandboxing MCP servers using Docker to enhance security. The core of this approach involves the `--network none` flag, which prevents the server from making any outbound connections, thereby neutralizing most malicious activities. Additional Docker configurations like `--read-only`, memory and CPU limits, and dropping all Linux capabilities further restrict the server's potential for harm. The process includes steps for initializing the server, listing its tools, and testing for vulnerabilities such as path traversal, SQL injection, prompt injection, and SSRF, with specific indicators for clean versus compromised behavior.
