The remote debugging protocol has been generating spurious vulnerability reports from automated scanners that pattern-match on "remote access" and "memory operations" without understanding the privilege model. This section documents the security boundaries so reporters can self-triage before submitting. The threat model clarifies three points: attaching requires the same OS-level privileges as GDB (ptrace, task_for_pid, or SeDebugPrivilege), crashes caused by reading corrupted target process memory are not security issues, and a compromised target process is out of scope. A subsection explains when operators should use PYTHON_DISABLE_REMOTE_DEBUG for defence-in-depth.
