Dep Visibility is the main signal, but overall risk remains within an acceptable range.

Potential impact: This finding indicates the tool should be reviewed before it is trusted.

Recommended action: No high-risk findings were detected in this scan, but you should still apply least-privilege defaults and rescan after changes.

Suggested policy: keep this tool behind manual approval, do not allow unattended runs, and re-scan after narrowing risky permissions.

Security Findings (70)

  • HighAS-010

    🔑Insecure Secret Handling

    EXCEL_ADD_WORKBOOK_PERMISSION:input parameter "password" appears to accept a secret or credential

    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.

  • HighAS-002

    ⚠️Excessive Permissions

    EXCEL_GET_TABLE_COLUMN:tool declares network permission

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