## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Embedded local script rules can run in browser page context. One rule intercepts dynamically compiled page code, substitutes page values into a form, and POSTs it to a decoded page-provided destination.

- **Trigger:** A consuming browser extension applies the embedded local script rule on a matching page.

- **Impact:** Potential exfiltration of page-derived API-key/link/form data to an untrusted destination.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/filters/chromium-mv3/local\_script\_rules.js, dist/filters/opera-mv3/local\_script\_rules.js, package.json, dist/lib/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-22T19:07:16.963Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Function-constructor proxy plus dynamic form-data POST

- **Attack narrative:** The packaged Chromium and Opera rulesets include an identical payload that hooks Function.prototype.constructor, detects code containing api\_key, reads page values, decodes window.ext\_site into a destination, builds FormData from intercepted HTML, and POSTs it. This is concrete page-context data forwarding, not merely a network-blocking rule.

- **Rationale:** The bundled rulesets contain a concrete credential/data forwarding chain in two target-browser artifacts. No install hook is needed for the payload to be harmful once a consumer loads these rules.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/lib/index.js, dist/cli.cjs, dist/filters/chromium-mv3/local\_script\_rules.js, dist/filters/opera-mv3/local\_script\_rules.js, dist/re2.wasm

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 95.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** Both browser rulesets embed the same guarded payload., Payload proxies Function constructor and extracts api\_key/link\_out., It decodes a page-provided destination and POSTs FormData there., Rules execute in visited-page context when consumed by an extension.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle hooks., Library downloads are explicit filter-build operations to filters.adtidy.org.
