[Bug][cyber] False positive: safety block on routine cloud IAM policy review and role-permission audit work (req_011CcmDqYaA7dS2mnrWKwjTZ)
Triage: kind cyber · domain cloud-iam · flagging model Sonnet 5 · 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): cloud-iam
Why this is a false positive
The session involved reviewing IAM role bindings and permission scopes on the user's own cloud infrastructure to identify overly broad grants, a standard access-governance and least-privilege audit task. This is defensive, in-scope security engineering with no exploit code, credential harvesting, or offensive tooling involved, so the topic-level cybersecurity trigger appears to be a keyword-level false positive rather than a content-based judgment.
