WHAT IT DOES

RISK

Why update_image_store is rated Medium

This tool modifies image store configuration settings, which is a Write-category operation (creates or modifies data reversibly). While the change affects infrastructure, it is not destructive (does not delete/overwrite irreversibly) and does not execute arbitrary code.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'update_image_store' and description 'Update an image store backend' indicate modification of infrastructure configuration. The verb 'update' is a reversible write operation on backend storage systems.
