## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 14 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.5.1
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The entrypoint contains an active, unconditional TLS-verification bypass on the authenticated request path. This is a concrete critical security weakness, but the inspected code does not establish malicious intent or a completed attack.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-27T04:47:33.900Z

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The package disables TLS certificate validation for its outbound HTTP client. This affects authenticated Google Contacts API requests made through that client.

- **Trigger:** Running a Google Contacts action or trigger that sends an API request.

- **Impact:** A network attacker able to intercept traffic could impersonate the intended service and observe or alter authenticated API traffic.

- **Evidence paths:** src/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-27T04:48:29.202Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The request client sets the Node TLS rejection setting to disabled, then sends a bearer-token-authenticated request.

- **Rationale:** The entrypoint contains an active, unconditional TLS-verification bypass on the authenticated request path. This is a concrete critical security weakness, but the inspected code does not establish malicious intent or a completed attack.

- **Network endpoints:** https://people.googleapis.com/v1/people

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest loads src/index.js as the package entrypoint., The active HTTP client disables Node TLS certificate verification before sending requests., The Google Contacts request helper sends the OAuth bearer token through that HTTP client to the Google People API.

- **Evidence against:** No install or lifecycle hook is declared in the manifest., No concrete data-exfiltration recipient or command execution path was found in the inspected entrypoint behavior.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @activepieces/piece-google-contacts@0.5.1.

- Review the evidence and your use of @activepieces/piece-google-contacts@0.5.1 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
