Why apply_ssl is rated Medium

Applying SSL is a write operation that modifies website configuration—it adds or updates SSL certificates and HTTPS settings. While this is a security-enhancing operation when used correctly, misuse by an AI agent (e.g., applying SSL to the wrong domain or interfering with legitimate certificate chains) could disrupt service availability or create security inconsistencies.

From the tool's definition Tool applies SSL certificates to websites, which modifies website configuration and security settings. The description indicates this creates or configures SSL/TLS settings on a domain, a reversible change to website infrastructure.
