One Medium finding. Read the findings before installing.

Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

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

Rescanned at commit f00ee51afde0.

INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT

Why this grade

  • INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT Medium

    Fetches a script from the network and runs it (a pipe to a shell, or an install hook with a URL).

    .devcontainer/postCreateCommand.sh, line 4 curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

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.

If you think this grade is wrong, email [email protected] with the entry link and your evidence. We aim to acknowledge within two working days and decide within seven. If we confirm an error, we aim to correct it within 24 hours of confirming it. These are aims, not guarantees.

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.

What was checked

Plain notes from the hygiene checks.

  • Permissions

    Concern

    can delete files.

    PERMISSION_DELETE_FILES

    skills/cli/e2e/e2e_test.go, line 76

    cmd := exec.Command("../bin/shs", append([]string{"-c", "config.yaml"}, args...)...)

    src/spark_history_mcp/api_client/api_client.py, line 704

    os.remove(path)

  • Install and update

    Serious

    install fetches a script from the network. The docs document an installer that pipes a download into a shell.

    INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER

    .devcontainer/postCreateCommand.sh, line 4

    curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

    examples/integrations/kiro/README.md, line 13

    curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

  • Network

    Note

    can reach api.github.com.

    NETWORK_NAMED_HOST

    skills/cli/README.md, line 52

    VERSION=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/kubeflow/mcp-apache-spark-history-server/releases | grep -m1 '"tag_name": "cli/' | cut -d'"' -f4 | sed 's|cli/||')

    skills/cli/README.md, line 58

    curl -sSL "https://github.com/kubeflow/mcp-apache-spark-history-server/releases/download/cli%2F${VERSION}/shs-${VERSION}-${OS}-${ARCH}.tar.gz" | tar xz

  • Secrets

    Concern

    reads a credential or environment file.

    SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV

    src/spark_history_mcp/config/config.py, line 219

    env_file=".env",

    src/spark_history_mcp/config/config.py, line 234

    # 2. .env file
