dashboard-icons
3,400+ curated icons and logos for dashboards and AI agents. SVG, PNG and WEBP on a free CDN, plus an MCP server for Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT, Cursor, Hermes and OpenClaw.
No outside reports on file
The biggest risk is relying on a third-party free CDN for production icons and trusting that logos won't change or disappear, plus potential legal issues with brand logos.
Based on public adoption and transparency signals as of Oct 20, 2026. Our opinion, not a code audit or security guarantee.

About Dashboard Icons

Who it’s for
Developers building dashboards, web applications, or AI agent interfaces who need quick access to a large library of icons and logos. Teams using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or similar AI coding tools to generate UI layouts.
Alternatives

Security reports

Risks to watch for
- CDN availability dependency: The service relies on an external CDN; if it goes down, icon URLs break in production applications.
- Icon curation trust: Icons are labeled "curated" but you cannot verify every logo or icon won't be replaced or modified without warning.
- Third-party logos: The library contains copyrighted brand logos; using them in your app could create legal issues if you're not authorized.
- AI prompt injection via icon names: Attackers could add icons with misleading names or metadata that trick the AI into making wrong design choices.
- Unvetted SVG content: SVG files can contain embedded scripts; while unlikely in a curated library, malicious SVGs could execute code if improperly handled.
How to lower the risk
Least-privilege permissions
- Use the MCP server read-only for icon lookups; don't grant write or admin access.
- Restrict which icons or categories the AI assistant can select.
Network isolation
- Cache critical icons locally rather than loading every one from the CDN.
- Monitor outbound requests to the CDN for unexpected patterns.
Monitoring
- Log which icons are requested and used in your application.
- Check periodically that icon URLs still resolve and content hasn't changed.
Red flags to watch for
- Icons being updated or renamed without clear changelog.
- Unusually large responses or suspicious metadata in icon files.
- AI assistant selecting inappropriate or off-brand icons unexpectedly.
