Grade B
Minor issues only, no Medium or High. Worth a quick look at the findings below before installing.
Not a guarantee. A hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, not a security audit.
NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV SECRETS_ENV_READ
Why this grade
- NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low
Makes a network call whose host is not written as a fixed address.
client/src/index.ts, line 5
* it does in one sitting. Zero dependencies; global fetch (Node >= 18, - SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low
Mentions a .env file.
client/smoke.mjs, line 3
// untracked .env at the repo root). Not run in CI - CI runs the fixture - SECRETS_ENV_READ Note
Reads an environment variable whose name contains KEY, SECRET, TOKEN, PASSWORD or CREDENTIAL.
client/smoke.mjs, line 16
const key = process.env.MESS_KEY ?? keyFromDotEnv();
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.
