WHAT IT DOES

What adb_selinux_status does on Deepadb

AI agents call adb_selinux_status to retrieve information from Deepadb without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why adb_selinux_status is rated Low

This is a read-only diagnostic tool that queries system security settings without performing any actions that could modify, delete, or execute operations. While it accesses security-sensitive information (SELinux status), the blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent cannot cause harm by reading this data.

From the tool's definition Tool description indicates it 'checks' and 'shows' SELinux status information—no creation, modification, deletion, or execution of commands.
