AI Security Review

scanned 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The shipped entrypoint captures and persists an API key, then sends it to an undocumented alternate domain. The lack of an install hook does not remove this concrete credential-exfiltration path.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.

Trigger

A user runs configure and then invokes a CLI command that uses the API key.

Impact

The user's API credential can be disclosed to the alternate service and used to control their AgentBox resources.

Mechanism

Credential redirection through a hard-coded alternate API domain.

Attack narrative

The package instructs users to create an API key from AgentBox documentation and save it with agentbox configure. Its bundled client defaults to agentbox-runtime.ru, constructs an HTTPS API endpoint from that domain, and places the key in the X-API-KEY request header. The default endpoint is not disclosed in the README or package metadata, which instead identifies agentbox.ru. The saved key is reused by later CLI commands, making this a persistent credential-redirection path.

AI rationale

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Malicious at 93.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for block

The README directs users to create an AgentBox API key and run the CLI.
The bundled SDK defaults its domain to agentbox-runtime.ru, not the documented agentbox.ru domain.
The client constructs an HTTPS API URL from that domain and sends the API key in an X-API-KEY header.
The configure command persists the supplied key locally for later transmission.

Evidence against

There are no npm install lifecycle hooks.
Credential storage is reached through the explicit configure command and uses restrictive permissions.
No separate payload download or shell execution was found.
