Summary

Reverts the security threshold change introduced in commit 550d8a18 by @cx-anurag-dalke.

What was changed

iac-security-high was silently changed from 1 to 2, meaning a build would pass even if it contains 1 high-severity IaC vulnerability. All other thresholds remained at 1.

- iac-security-high=2
+ iac-security-high=1

Why this is a security issue

A threshold of =2 allows one IaC high-severity finding (e.g. public S3 bucket, overly permissive IAM role, unencrypted database) to pass the security gate silently. Inconsistent with every other threshold in the file and creates a blind spot.

Related

Reverts commit 550d8a1 which changed iac-security-high from 1 to 2,
silently allowing one IaC high-severity vulnerability to pass the
security gate undetected. All thresholds should be consistent at 1.
