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 (6)

  • InfoAS-014

    ℹ️Dependency Inventory Unavailable ×5

    Tool did not expose metadata.dependencies or repo_url, so supply-chain coverage is limited.

    generate_diagramcontinue_rungenerate_plotevaluate_diagramevaluate_plot

    Fix: Review and remediate the identified issue.

  • InfoAS-002

    ⚠️Excessive Permissions

    continue_run:declared capabilities: filesystem access

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