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 scanner’s cloud metadata and command execution signals are consistent with bundled Google authentication support. The exported custom API action has a separate, user-triggered TLS verification side effect that presents unresolved risk, so a warning is appropriate. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-16T03:10:15.251Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-16T03:11:23.986Z - **Download time:** 1025 ms - **Static scan time:** 1459 ms - **AI review time:** 66251 ms - **Total time:** 68735 ms 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 exported generic API action disables TLS certificate verification globally in the Node process when it sends a request. This creates an unresolved risk that later HTTPS traffic could be intercepted. - **Trigger:** A user invokes the generic API action to send a request. - **Impact:** TLS certificate checks may remain disabled for subsequent HTTPS requests in the process. - **Evidence paths:** src/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T03:11:23.986Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The shared request client sets Node’s TLS verification override before sending the action’s request. - **Rationale:** The scanner’s cloud metadata and command execution signals are consistent with bundled Google authentication support. The exported custom API action has a separate, user-triggered TLS verification side effect that presents unresolved risk, so a warning is appropriate. - **Files touched:** package.json, src/index.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest points to src/index.js and declares no dependencies or lifecycle scripts., The generic API action accepts a URL from its input and sends the request through a shared client., That action is included in the exported Google Contacts actions., The request client changes Node’s TLS verification setting to disabled when sending a request. - **Evidence against:** The TLS override is reached through a user-invoked API action; the source does not establish hidden credential transfer or an install-time attack. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @activepieces/piece-google-contacts@0.5.3. - Review the evidence and your use of @activepieces/piece-google-contacts@0.5.3 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
