NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED SECRETS_ENV_READ
Why this grade
- NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low
Makes a network call whose host is not written as a fixed address.
nobleblocks_mcp/remote_server.py, line 1673
const resp = await fetch('/oauth/login/google', {{ - SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low
Mentions a .env file.
scripts/regression_test.py, line 21
NOBLEBLOCKS_API_KEY internal token (stored in .env.local or set in shell) - PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note
Runs shell commands, and the manifest or description says so.
patent-ingestors/patent_refresh_orchestrator.py, line 155
result = subprocess.run( - SECRETS_ENV_READ Note
Reads an environment variable whose name contains KEY, SECRET, TOKEN, PASSWORD or CREDENTIAL.

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.
