Why arvan_s3_copy_object is rated Medium
Copying objects in S3 is a write operation that creates new data objects and modifies storage state. While reversible (copies can be deleted), it has a high severity rating due to the potential for an AI agent to misuse this tool to copy sensitive data across buckets, create unauthorized duplicates of confidential information, or exhaust storage quotas through excessive copying.
From the tool's definition Tool description: 'Copy an object to another key/bucket.' The operation creates a duplicate of an object in S3 storage, modifying the state of the storage system by adding new data. This is reversible (the copy can be deleted).
