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

Rescanned at commit 8a6a5745556e.

NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    scripts/publish_clawhub.py, line 125 with urllib.request.urlopen(request, timeout=30) as response:

  • NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST Low

    Calls a fixed host that the description does not name.

    scripts/publish_clawhub.py, line 125 with urllib.request.urlopen(request, timeout=30) as response:

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note

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

    scripts/publish_clawhub.py, line 321 subprocess.run(publish_cmd(folder), check=True)

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.
