WHAT IT DOES

RISK

Why logs_get_nginx_log is rated Low

The low severity reflects that log data is typically non-sensitive operational metadata, though confidence is very high given the clear read-only semantics.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'logs_get_nginx_log' and description 'Read Nginx log file' explicitly indicate retrieval of existing log data with no modification or deletion capability.
