Summary

24 findings likely need attention, 30 look like noise. Most notable: Found 'importlib.resources', which is a module only available on Python 3.7+. This does... (99% confidence).

Generated from finding counts. A plain-English summary was not available for this scan.

Risk, by type

MalDet scores two different questions separately, because they call for different responses: code can be badly written without being hostile, and hostile code is not always badly written.

Vulnerability
High (147)
Insecure coding an attacker could exploit. Usually mistakes, and usually fixable in place.
Malicious pattern
Low (2)
Signs the code may be trying to do harm: hidden payloads, credential access, persistence, exfiltration.

24 of 54 findings were rated more likely genuine than noise by the classifier.

Evidence

Identical findings are grouped, so a single rule firing many times takes one row. Ordered worst first. “Seen” is how many times that finding occurred.

high semgrep Using variable interpolation `${{...}}` with `github` context data in a `run:` step could allow an attacker to inject their own code into the runner. This would allow them to steal secrets and code. `github` context data can have arbitrary user input and should be treated as untrusted. Instead, use 2 /.github/workflows/release.yml:52
high semgrep By not specifying a USER, a program in the container may run as 'root'. This is a security hazard. If an attacker can control a process running as root, they may have control over the container. Ensure that the last USER in a Dockerfile is a USER other than 'root'. 1 /docker/Dockerfile:48
medium semgrep Detected a python logger call with a potential hardcoded secret "token usage model=%s input=%d output=%d " "cache_write=%d cache_read=%d" being logged. This may lead to secret credentials being exposed. Make sure that the logger is not logging sensitive information. 1 /src/seclab_taskflow_agent/_stream.py:134
medium semgrep GitHub Actions step uses a mutable tag or branch reference. Tags and branch names can be silently repointed by the action owner, enabling supply-chain attacks — as seen in the trivy-action and kics-github-action compromises. Pin the reference to a full 40-character commit SHA instead, e.g. `uses: ac 7 /.github/workflows/codeql.yml:42
