[Bug][cyber] Legitimate reverse-engineering analysis of drone app cert/command timing blocked as "cybersecurit (req_011CcofuSrGGij6dAoLz3vcb)
Triage: kind cyber · domain general · 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): general
Why this is a false positive
User was analyzing a widely-used commercial app's certificate and command-sending behavior to understand when/where operations occur—standard reverse engineering work that falls under security research and educational contexts. The safety block incorrectly triggered on a technical query about app internals that has no malicious intent, preventing legitimate analysis work that does not involve harm, evasion, or unauthorized access to external systems.
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 2026-07-08T00:49:35.156Z.
