Rescanned at commit f9698059ef79, unchanged since the check below.

PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL

Why this grade

  • PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED Medium

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

    Agents/jfrog-agent/scripts/create_bq_tracking_tables.py, line 64 subprocess.run(cmd, check=True, capture_output=True, text=True)

  • 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).

    artifactory/.circleci/config.yml, line 183 curl -s https://fluxcd.io/install.sh | bash

  • SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL Medium

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

    agent-safety-kit/agent_safety/input_guard/secrets.py, line 9 - Uploaded / pasted secret filenames (*.pem, credentials.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.

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

    requests shell access. No manifest field names shell or command execution.

    PERMISSION_SHELL_UNDECLARED

    Agents/jfrog-agent/scripts/create_bq_tracking_tables.py, line 64

    subprocess.run(cmd, check=True, capture_output=True, text=True)

    acct = subprocess.run(["gcloud", "config", "get-value", "account"], capture_output=True, text=True, check=True)

  • Install and update

    Serious

    install fetches a script from the network.

    curl -s https://fluxcd.io/install.sh | sudo bash

  • Network

    Concern

    can reach a host that is not written as a fixed address.
