  severity: WARNING
  message: >-
    Data is being piped into `bash` from a `curl` command. An attacker with control of the server
    in the `curl` command could inject malicious code into the pipe, resulting in a

    If you must do this, consider checking the SHA sum of the content returned by the server to verify
    its
