## Why update_cms_file is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data reversibly by updating CMS file code. While not destructive (no deletion), it carries high severity because unauthorized updates to CMS files could inject malicious code, alter site logic, deface content, or compromise the storefront's functionality and security. The blast radius includes potential site defacement, customer data exposure via injected code, and business disruption.

From the tool's own definition: "'Update the code content of an existing CMS file' — directly modifies file content, a reversible Write operation. The term 'update' confirms modification rather than deletion, and 'code content' indicates it alters executable or structural assets."
