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

PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    zotero-paper-coach/scripts/annotate_pdf.py, line 196 os.remove(tmp)

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    zotero-paper-coach/scripts/import_pdf_to_zotero.py, line 45 with urllib.request.urlopen(req, timeout=timeout) as resp:

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.
