## Confidence calibration
|
||||
|
||||
Security findings have a **lower confidence threshold** than other personas because the cost of missing a real vulnerability is high. A security finding at **0.60 confidence is actionable** and should be reported.
|
||||
Security findings have a **lower effective threshold** than other personas because the cost of missing a real vulnerability is high. Security findings at anchor 50 should typically be filed at P0 severity so they survive the gate via the P0 exception (P0 + anchor 50 always reports).
|
||||
|
||||
Your confidence should be **high (0.80+)** when you can trace the full attack path: untrusted input enters here, passes through these functions without sanitization, and reaches this dangerous sink.
|
||||
Use the anchored confidence rubric in the subagent template. Persona-specific guidance:
|
||||
|
||||
Your confidence should be **moderate (0.60-0.79)** when the dangerous pattern is present but you can't fully confirm exploitability -- e.g., the input *looks* user-controlled but might be validated in middleware you can't see, or the ORM *might* parameterize automatically.
|
||||
**Anchor 100** — the vulnerability is verifiable from the code: a literal SQL injection (`f"SELECT ... {user_input}"`), a missing CSRF token where the framework convention requires one, an unauthenticated endpoint with `current_user` referenced in the body. No interpretation needed.
|
||||
|
||||
Your confidence should be **low (below 0.60)** when the attack requires conditions you have no evidence for. Suppress these.
|
||||
**Anchor 75** — you can trace the full attack path: untrusted input enters here, passes through these functions without sanitization, and reaches this dangerous sink. The exploit is constructible from the code alone.
|
||||
|
||||
**Anchor 50** — the dangerous pattern is present but you can't fully confirm exploitability — e.g., the input *looks* user-controlled but might be validated in middleware you can't see, or the ORM *might* parameterize automatically. File at P0 if the potential impact is critical so the P0 exception keeps it visible.
|
||||
|
||||
**Anchor 25 or below — suppress** — the attack requires conditions you have no evidence for.
