PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    src/bilibili.ts, line 525 .map((name) => fs.rm(path.join(directory, name), { force: true })));

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    src/bilibili.ts, line 125 const response = await fetch(url, { headers: { "User-Agent": "bilibili-video-research-mcp/0.1" } });

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    README.md, line 35 This is a local MCP server, but public metadata, archive tags, optional sampled comments, and selected media or text evidence may be sent to the provider configured in `.env`. Prov

  • OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB Low

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

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    src/video-analysis.ts, line 170 const apiKey = process.env.GEMINI_API_KEY;

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.
