[Bug][aup] Defensive attack-surface audit cataloging CVEs on own infrastructure wrongly blocked (req_011CbwsNDvV3FkYH5hP1E8gX)

Type: AUP / Usage-Policy block (false positive) · Work domain (heuristic): general

Why this is a false positive

This security audit request is standard defensive work — enumerating an owner's own attack surface for CVEs and exploitable services to produce a remediation checklist is the core activity of asset-owner vulnerability management, not offensive cyber activity. The request contains no exploit code, no targeting of third-party systems, and no intrusion tooling; it asks only for inventory and prioritization of weaknesses on infrastructure the requester operates. Blocking it under the violative-cyber-content policy is a false positive that prevents a legitimate, in-scope defensive task.
