RISK

Why create_vast_custom_report is rated Medium

This tool creates a new report configuration, which is a reversible data modification operation (Write category). Severity is medium because misconfigured reports could lead to incorrect ad performance data or wasted analysis, but the operation itself is reversible and does not cause irreversible data loss or financial transactions.
