[Bug][cyber] Safety filter blocked routine cloud IAM policy review/configuration task (req_011CcnFb4zKb4mLSs2aPbUhT)

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 was performing standard cloud identity and access management work (reviewing or adjusting IAM roles/policies), a common and legitimate administrative task, when the model's cybersecurity safeguard triggered and halted the entire request. This appears to be a false positive matching generic IAM terminology to offensive security patterns rather than evaluating actual intent or context. Blocking routine cloud administration work disrupts legitimate operational tasks and forces users into an exemption process for everyday configuration work.

A server-side safety/policy block fired during authorized, in-scope work in Claude Code. Filing as a false positive. Recurred 1× across 1 session(s); first seen 2026-07-07T06:50:06.488Z.
