PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_UNCONFIRMED OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    third-party/autoresearch-master/prepare.py, line 83 os.remove(path)

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

    Makes a network call whose host is not written as a fixed address.

    third-party/autoresearch-master/prepare.py, line 68 response = requests.get(url, stream=True, timeout=30)

  • SECRETS_PATH_UNCONFIRMED Low

    The Secrets check reports a credential or environment file, but no quoted line shows a recognisable path.

    third-party/knowledge-catalog-main/okf/.gitignore, line 10 .DS_Store

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP Note

    A file was over the read cap and was not fully read.

    data/cognitive-core-skills.json, line 1 {

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED Note

    The 400 file cap was reached before every file was read.

    data/cognitive-core-skills.json, line 1 {

Any High, or two or more Medium findings, give D. One Medium gives C. Low findings or a security Note give B. Each code names a finding behind the letter.

Grades are a hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, on the date checked, not a security audit or a guarantee. The free directory grades are automated. Before release, a PlugVet engineer reviews every paid report and any grade we hold back, including all F grades, against the source code and the evidence we quote.
