NETWORK_NO_FIXED_HOST NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP 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.
logs/growth/articles/publish-to-devto.sh, line 20
RESULT1=$(curl -s -w "\n%{http_code}" -X POST https://dev.to/api/articles \ - NETWORK_UNNAMED_HOST Low
Calls a fixed host that the description does not name.
logs/growth/articles/publish-to-devto.sh, line 20
RESULT1=$(curl -s -w "\n%{http_code}" -X POST https://dev.to/api/articles \ - SECRETS_PATH_DOTENV Low
Mentions a .env file.
logs/growth/articles/publish-to-devto.sh, line 4
# Or: source .env && ./publish-to-devto.sh - PERMISSION_SHELL_DECLARED Note
Runs shell commands, and the manifest or description says so.
products/api-service/main.py, line 8940
result = subprocess.run(["whois", domain], capture_output=True, text=True, timeout=10) - OBFUSCATION_FILE_OVER_READ_CAP Note
A file was over the read cap and was not fully read.
products/api-service/main.py, line 1
""" - OBFUSCATION_FILE_CAP_REACHED Note
The 400 file cap was reached before every file was read.
products/api-service/main.py, line 1
"""
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
Note
