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

Rescanned at commit e56150b14c35, unchanged since the check below.

PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    scripts/checks/docs_link_root_hygiene.py, line 253 result = subprocess.run(

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    examples/integration-pack/local-web-api.curl.sh, line 8 curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ${NOTES_SNAPSHOT_WEB_TOKEN}" \

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    scripts/checks/docs_link_root_hygiene.py, line 35 ".env.example",

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

    Reads an environment variable whose name contains KEY, SECRET, TOKEN, PASSWORD or CREDENTIAL.

    scripts/ops/web_server.py, line 60 WEB_TOKEN = os.getenv("NOTES_SNAPSHOT_WEB_TOKEN", "").strip()

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.
