- **Config hot reload**: Live config reload via `POST /api/v1/reload` with document root change support
- **Install script**: `curl -fsSL https://uwaserver.com/install.sh | sh` for Linux/macOS
- **Benchmark suite**: Static file, vhost lookup, middleware chain, cache get/set benchmarksWhy was this flagged?
A script or Makefile pipes content from a remote URL directly into a shell (curl | sh or wget | bash). This is inherently dangerous because the remote content can change at any time, and the command runs with the current user's permissions. Rated HIGH because it requires manual execution (unlike install hooks) but still executes arbitrary remote code.
