+## <a name="featuresPotentiallyUnsafeConfigAnnotations" />Unsafe annotations in `config.json`
+
+**`potentiallyUnsafeConfigAnnotations`** (array of strings, OPTIONAL) contains values of [`annotations` property of `config.json`](config.md#annotations)
+that may potentially change the behavior of the runtime.
+
+A value that ends with "." is interpreted as a prefix of annotations.
+
+### Example
+```json
+"potentiallyUnsafeConfigAnnotations": [
+  "com.example.foo.bar",
+  "org.systemd.property."
+]
+```
+
+The example above matches `com.example.foo.bar`, `org.systemd.property.ExecStartPre`, etc.
+The example does not match `com.example.foo.bar.baz`.
+
 # Example
 
 Here is a full example for reference.
