Production Write Access

What Foo Guard detects

One or more permissions grant write or admin access to production resources.

When this rule triggers

a permission combines production: true with accessLevel: "write" or "admin".

Foo Guard evaluates the normalized configuration supplied to the scanner. A finding describes configuration risk; it does not establish that an attack occurred. An absent finding does not prove that an undeclared capability is safe.

How to fix

Prefer read-only production access. If writes are required, restrict the target resources and place consequential changes behind approval.

Verify the change

Update the actual agent configuration and the underlying permissions or controls, then run the scanner again. Inspect the finding’s evidence path to confirm the intended setting changed. Do not clear a finding by changing a declaration that no longer reflects the deployed agent.
