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

Rescanned at commit 300bde65a2c8.

PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES INSTALL_UNPINNED NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_ENV_READ

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES Low

    Contains a call that can delete files.

    src/autostart.ts, line 67 fs.unlinkSync(PID_FILE);

  • INSTALL_UNPINNED Low

    Dependencies use a range or git URL with no lockfile.

    package.json, line 37 @modelcontextprotocol/sdk

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    src/index.ts, line 69 return fetch(url, { headers, signal: AbortSignal.timeout(30_000) });

  • SECRETS_ENV_READ Note

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

    src/index.ts, line 51 const BETTERDB_TOKEN = process.env.BETTERDB_TOKEN;

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.
