[Bug][aup] Authorized attack-surface CVE audit of own infrastructure blocked as AUP violation (req_011CbwmvTobfcKmQ9whuQ8gP)

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

Why this is a false positive

The text:

This refusal is a false positive. The blocked request is a routine defensive security task — auditing an owned, in-scope production system for known vulnerabilities (CVEs) and exploitable conditions in order to harden it against ongoing attacks. The work is asset-owner-initiated, authorized, and the requested output is a remediation checklist, all of which fall squarely within standard defensive security practice rather than any prohibited offensive or malicious use.

A server-side safety/policy block fired during authorized, in-scope work in Claude Code.
