NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST Low

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

    CHANGELOG.md, line 155 anonymous fetch (public/shared conversations are fully server-rendered and

  • SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low

    Mentions a .env file.

    .gitignore, line 5 .env

  • INSTALL_DOCUMENTED_INSTALLER Note

    Documentation shows an installer that pipes a download into a shell.

    .devcontainer/devcontainer.json, line 8 "onCreateCommand": "curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/htlin222/dotfiles/main/start/codespace_prewarm.sh | bash",

  • OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED Note

    The 400 file cap was reached before every file was read.

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.

What was checked

Plain notes from the hygiene checks.

  • Permissions

    Pass

    No shell or command call was found in the code. This check does not read permissions an entry declares. A permission line to run shell commands and write or edit files was found in this repository, and it may apply to this entry.

  • Install and update

    Note

    The docs document an installer that pipes a download into a shell.

  • Network

    Concern

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