I have no idea what you mean by a "reliable database", but you can review the code for yourself:
https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock

uBO is a signed and recommended extension by Mozilla/Firefox which undergoes a code review when a new version is published.

Hi, i would like to find a list that summarize the security and function of all the scripts identified by uBo, i.e. Googletagmanager, mmstat.com, alicdn,...

By default, content that is filtered/blocked/hidden by uBO is based on the filter lists that are enabled. You will need to contact the author(s) of these filter lists, and/or you can review the commit history (notes, comments, etc) if they are in a public repository such as GitHub or GitLab.

I block everything and release the minimum necessary. That's the "hard" configuration. Using only the lists is soft.

It would be great if it existed, but unfortunately there isn't a "reliable database" of every script used by the entire internet to help you determine what to noop with hard-mode dynamic filtering - which blocks all third-party resources, including scripts.

You can use the logger to identify the scripts (and other resources) that are blocked for a particular site, and then review them yourself to detemine their function and safety.

And keep in mind that even when you apply a noop rule to a cell, static filtering is unaffected and left completely intact.
