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

Rescanned at commit e420f43e1c70, unchanged since the check below.

PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    npm/postinstall.js, line 54 fs.unlink(dest, () => {});

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    npm/postinstall.js, line 51 const req = https.get(url, (response) => {

  • NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST Low

    Calls a fixed host that the description does not name.

    npm/postinstall.js, line 51 const req = https.get(url, (response) => {

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 66 .env

  • INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER Note

    Documentation shows an installer that pipes a download into a shell.

    README.md, line 88 curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ezzy1630/argyph/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

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.
