Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    scripts/window/release-mcp.sh, line 96 HEALTH=$(curl -s -m 15 https://mcp.pangolinfo.com/health || echo '{}')

  • NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST Low

    Calls a fixed host that the description does not name.

    scripts/window/release-mcp.sh, line 96 HEALTH=$(curl -s -m 15 https://mcp.pangolinfo.com/health || echo '{}')

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 4 .env

  • INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER Note

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

    README.md, line 47 curl -fsSL https://pangolinfo.dev/install.sh | sh -s -- \

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    src/auth.ts, line 97 apiKey: process.env.PANGOLINFO_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.
