Rescanned at commit 07da85f90cf7, unchanged since the check below.

INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL AGENT_IGNORE_INSTRUCTIONS

Why this grade

  • INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT Medium

    Fetches a script from the network and runs it (a pipe to a shell, or an install hook with a URL).

    docs/TAILSCALE_MANDATORY.md, line 26 curl -fsSL https://tailscale.com/install.sh | sh

  • SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL Medium

    Mentions a credential store path (~/.ssh, id_rsa, .npmrc, .aws/credentials, credentials.json, .netrc).

    backend/app/skills/ir-playbook-bruteforce/references/playbook.md, line 1317 cat ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

  • AGENT_IGNORE_INSTRUCTIONS Medium

    Text tells the agent to ignore earlier instructions.

    backend/app/roster.py, line 303 "input": "Triage this Wazuh alert: {\"rule\":{\"id\":\"31106\",\"level\":12,\"description\":\"Web attack returned code 200\"},\"agent\":{\"id\":\"002\",\"name\":\"web-prod-02\"},\"

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.

If you think this grade is wrong, email [email protected] with the entry link and your evidence. We aim to acknowledge within two working days and decide within seven. If we confirm an error, we aim to correct it within 24 hours of confirming it. These are aims, not guarantees.

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.
