Grades are a hygiene check, not a security guarantee.

PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED Medium

    Runs shell commands that the manifest or description does not mention.

    any-mcp/scripts/run-live-gate.py, line 228 def terminate(process: subprocess.Popen[bytes]) -> None:

  • 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).

    .github/workflows/finalize-release.yml, line 122 run: "curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -LsSf https://github.com/axodotdev/cargo-dist/releases/download/v0.30.3/cargo-dist-installer.sh | sh"

  • OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB Medium

    Contains a long base64 shaped string in a file that should be readable.

    any-mcp/src/artifact_staging.rs, line 1 // any-mcp - bounded, workflow-oriented MCP server for Anytype

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.

What was checked

Plain notes from the hygiene checks.

  • Permissions

    Concern

    requests shell access. No manifest field names shell or command execution.

  • Install and update

    Serious

    install fetches a script from the network.

    INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT

    curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh -s -- -y

  • Network

    Concern

    can reach a host that is not written as a fixed address.

    .fetch(),

  • Secrets

    Concern

    reads a credential or environment file.

  • Agent instructions

    Pass

    No instruction to ignore earlier instructions or to hide a step.

  • Obfuscation

    Concern

    contains an encoded blob in a file that should be readable.
