[Bug][cyber] ClAudit false-positive — req_011CcCepiTEkxSuqMtYz6Wue
Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): general
Why this is a false positive
The Claude Code session was flagged for a cybersecurity topic while performing routine, authorized administrative work: transferring a service binary to a host and configuring a stopped service to run it, all within infrastructure the operator owns and controls. The flagged message described ordinary operational mechanics — comparing two file-transfer methods (a slow base64 upload versus a direct HTTPS download) and reporting upload progress and service state — none of which constitutes offensive tooling, exploitation, or unauthorized access. This appears to be a keyword- or pattern-driven false positive on standard sysadmin and deployment activity, blocking benign in-scope work rather than any genuinely harmful request.
A server-side safety/policy block fired during authorized, in-scope work in Claude Code.
