[Bug][cyber] False positive while extracting service endpoints from desktop application config (req_011CeQ1JyPzpFqFBB7QQfVjU)
Triage: kind cyber · domain reverse-engineering · flagging model Opus 4.8 · 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): reverse-engineering
Why this is a false positive
The safeguard interrupted a static analysis task extracting API endpoints, hostnames, and configuration objects from an unpacked desktop application. The session focused on mapping service endpoints from client configuration files for enterprise system integration. Flagging routine configuration parsing halts legitimate reverse-engineering work during client application audits.
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 2026-08-25T19:18:42.614Z.
