such a long shell script, didn't read it carefully but i bet the 'author' doesn't really know what they just wrote.. don't use this.
It looks like an automation script for their Fedora hardening guide, and I don't understand why they don't refer to it in their script instead of telling you to ask an AI.
From a cursory read of the code I can't see anything malicious, but the red flags are requiring root to run, being over 6400 lines long, vibe coded and some dubious coding decisions (like re-reading /etc/passwd multiple times, munging separate checks together in functions) - I wouldn't run it myself on anything important, even if it looks like it could be handy.
Looks like a scam to me. It can do all these tests to find security issues, but instead of telling you how to fix things (or do it itself) it has you input it to an AI?
Alternatively, you could create a proxmox VM with you OS setup or whatever really, and the use it to scan that just to fiddle around with it.
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
