3 in total: 2 read-only, 1 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.
Is Maven Dependencies safe to connect to an agent?
The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.
