[Bug][cyber] Safeguard false positive during host channel discovery for binary deployment (req_011CeYNARZLAGBUBDh5JVeVV)

Triage: kind cyber · domain offensive-pentest · 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): offensive-pentest

Why this is a false positive

The safeguard triggered during routine channel discovery while identifying valid transport mechanisms for binary deployment. The underlying task involved verifying SSH availability and API communication endpoints for a target system. Interrogating host network access parameters interrupted standard deployment logic without generating malicious payloads.
