  "summary": "This is a strong, mostly complete match to the advisory. It correctly identifies the Tool Valves read endpoint in the tools router, explains that authenticated non-admin users with relevant tool access can reach it, and shows that the handler returns raw tool valve data without an admin-only check. Evidence quality is high and the report stays within the advisory’s broken access control / information discl
