Risk Summary

Safe With Normal Controls

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 (48)

  • LowAS-011

    ℹ️Missing Rate-Limit / Timeout ×7

    tool performs network or execution operations but declares no rate-limit, timeout, or retry configuration

    create_commentcreate_issueupdate_issuecreate_issue_labelcreate_projectupdate_projectsearch_documentation

    Fix: Declare explicit rate-limit, timeout, and retry configuration for all network and execution tools. Implement exponential back-off and surface resource state to the calling agent.

  • LowAS-002
