[Bug][cyber] Broad safeguards block code review of trusted proxy IP header validation (req_011CeZQ2X9wsdntp1mDkvkU4)

Triage: kind cyber · domain general · 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): general

Why this is a false positive

The automated safety filter triggered during an interactive code review focused on identifying security gaps in application header processing. The session involved inspecting trusted proxy functions that handle client IP resolution to harden internal routing boundaries. No external exploit payloads or attack tools were generated, as all operations were confined to analyzing local authorization code.

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 2026-08-30T18:22:15.800Z.
