RISK

Why aos8_get_audit_trail is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only query of audit trail logs from an AOS8 controller. While audit logs may contain sensitive information (justifying 'low' severity rather than none), the operation itself is non-destructive and has no side effects—it only retrieves and displays existing data. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed.

From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'get' and description states it retrieves 'audit trail' output via 'show audit-trail' command. These are characteristic read operations that query existing data without modification or side effects.
