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

Rescanned at commit 88b429d4df32, unchanged since the check below.

PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED Medium

    Runs shell commands that the manifest or description does not mention.

    parity/record.py, line 49 p = subprocess.run([sys.executable, "-m", "loci.cli", *args],

  • SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL Medium

    Mentions a credential store path (~/.ssh, id_rsa, .npmrc, .aws/credentials, credentials.json, .netrc).

    src/loci/redact.py, line 26 ".env", ".envrc", "credentials", "credentials.json", "secrets.json",

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.
