ClawAudit verdict

🟠 Risky

Significant concerns — only install if you understand the risks

Installs a binary scanner from Gitee with sudo system-wide privileges and optionally runs a background daemon process (nohup); while declared as a security scanner, the combination of Gitee-sourced binary + sudo install + persistent daemon warrants elevated scrutiny.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. ClawAudit flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.

Why the tier is capped

Execution sink present in raw bytes (Hard Floor: class B/D/E). Final tier capped at Caution — cannot be lifted by any downgrade, example-payload opt-in, or allowlist.
