Grade D

Two or more Medium findings, or a High finding. Only try it in a sandbox.

Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

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

Rescanned at commit 180d44f44725, unchanged since the check below.

NETWORK_HOST_FROM_INPUT INSTALL_REMOTE_SCRIPT SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB

Why this grade

  • NETWORK_HOST_FROM_INPUT High

    A file takes a URL or endpoint as input and has no fixed host list.

    build_deb.sh, line 208 default-jre-headless, unzip, curl | wget

  • 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).

    build_deb.sh, line 302 echo "qu1cksc0pe: WARNING — Ollama download failed. Install manually: curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh" >&2

  • SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL Medium

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

    Modules/apple_analyzer.py, line 142 rb"\.ssh/", rb"id_rsa", rb"authorized_keys", rb"/root/",

  • OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB Medium

    Contains a long base64 shaped string in a file that should be readable.

    Modules/js_emulator.py, line 1 """Side-effect-free JavaScript behavior emulation for suspicious scripts.

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.
