Grade B

Minor issues only, no Medium or High. Worth a quick look at the findings below before installing.

Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

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

PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    hooks/auto-setup.cjs, line 153 if (ok) { try { fs.unlinkSync(ATTEMPT_MARKER); } catch (_) {} }

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    hooks/route-hint.cjs, line 3 // gateway already serves. `curl https://gitlab.com/api/...`, `glab`, a WebFetch of a

  • NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST Low

    Calls a fixed host that the description does not name.

    hooks/route-hint.cjs, line 3 // gateway already serves. `curl https://gitlab.com/api/...`, `glab`, a WebFetch of a

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 2 .env

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    hooks/auto-setup.cjs, line 74 const explicit = (process.env.BIFROST_KEYAPP_URL || pluginOption('keyapp_url')).trim();

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.
