Why export_form_submissions is rated Medium
This tool creates a new file (the exported spreadsheet) in persistent storage, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money. The severity is medium because the export operation has bounded scope (limited to a specific form's data) and can be reversed by deleting the created file, though unauthorized exports could expose sensitive form submission data.
From the tool's definition Tool exports form submissions as a spreadsheet and stores it in user's Nextcloud storage, creating a new file artifact. Description explicitly states 'Export...into the user's Nextcloud storage' and 'Returns the destination path', indicating file creation.
