Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

Not a guarantee. A hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, not a security audit.

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    install.sh, line 31 curl -fsSL "$url" -o "$tmp"

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

    Runs shell commands, and the manifest or description says so.

    internal/cli/browser.go, line 17 cmd = exec.Command("open", url)

  • INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER Note

    Documentation shows an installer that pipes a download into a shell.

    README.md, line 17 curl -fsSL https://freehire.me/install.sh | sh

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.
