Default severityMEDIUMEvidence classprovenance
What it means
Read the evidence before the label.
This alert records provenance evidence produced by the YARA analyzer. Its default severity describes potential impact, not certainty that an extension is malicious.
A final decision also considers evidence correlation, artifact identity, analysis coverage, and the active policy.
Confirm whether the behavior matches the extension’s declared purpose and whether execution requires explicit user intent.
