[Bug][cyber] Safety block prevented reading a remote-desktop app's open-source code for review (req_011CcCJvtRrDwBjF4vtvahNr)

Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): general

Why this is a false positive

The request was to read and explain source code from a well-known open-source remote-desktop project — a routine code-comprehension task with no offensive, exploitative, or malicious component. Reviewing the implementation of publicly available, general-purpose networking software is standard development and security-hygiene work, and the cybersecurity-topic classifier appears to be triggering on surface keywords (remote access, networking) rather than on any actual harmful intent or capability. The block prevents ordinary read-and-explain assistance on legitimate, in-scope software, which is a clear over-trigger.
