Destructive Operations Without Approval

What Foo Guard detects

The agent can modify resources while destructive operation approval is explicitly disabled.

When this rule triggers

destructiveOperationsRequireApproval is false and a tool can modify resources.

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

Require approval for destructive operations and enforce it in the execution path. Test a denied operation, not only the happy path.

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.
