[Bug][cyber] ClAudit false-positive in DJI — req_011CcV5MAAVyWRSqA8yDWNbJ
Triage: kind cyber · domain infra-devops · severity session-halted (blocked authorized work) · reproducible: yes — server-side via the Request ID(s) below
Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): infra-devops
Why this is a false positive
The blocked message was part of authorized, in-scope security analysis of a binary our team is permitted to assess, specifically identifying a cryptographic routine while reverse-engineering a vendor library to understand its data-handling behavior. This is standard defensive infrastructure and interoperability work, not an attempt to attack a third party or develop offensive capability—the discussion centers on documenting and analyzing existing code, which falls squarely within routine reverse-engineering performed under proper authorization. The safety system appears to have keyed on the presence of cryptography and decryption terminology and misclassified ordinary technical reverse-engineering as a prohibited cyber use case.
