SEC626 / CLAUDE-BASH ​

SEC626 flags shared committed Claude settings when permissions.allow contains the exact bare tool token Bash.

Why It Matters ​

Bare Bash grants unconstrained shell execution authority without narrowing execution to reviewed commands.

Trigger Shape ​

This rule matches parsed Claude settings JSON where permissions.allow contains the exact string Bash.

How To Fix ​

Replace bare Bash with narrower reviewed command patterns such as Bash(git status) or remove shared shell authority from the committed team settings file.
