    Fix: Tool requests broad permissions (exec/fs/network). Validate input parameters using Enums where possible, and restrict file system operations to explicit allowed directories.

  • HighAS-010

    🔑Insecure Secret Handling ×4

    input parameter "client_secret" appears to accept a secret or credential

    input parameter "token" appears to accept a secret or credential

    CANVA_REVOKE_OAUTH_TOKENSCANVA_VALIDATE_OAUTH_TOKEN_PROPERTIES

    Fix: Avoid accepting raw credentials as input parameters. Use secret managers (e.g. 1Password CLI, AWS Secrets Manager) and ensure credentials are never logged or stored in agent traces.
