## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 0.1.6
- **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 package has a conditional credential-forwarding capability because an existing key is sent to an unrestricted configured endpoint. This supports a warning, not a block, because the destination override is explicitly operator-configured and no covert export was found.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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:** A caller can configure the inference destination while the program loads an existing XAI credential. No confirmed covert attack was identified.

- **Trigger:** Running an inference feature with XAI\_BASE\_URL set.

- **Impact:** The XAI credential could be exposed to an arbitrary configured endpoint.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T10:02:11.729Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The program uses the configured base URL and places the loaded API key in an authorization header.

- **Rationale:** The package has a conditional credential-forwarding capability because an existing key is sent to an unrestricted configured endpoint. This supports a warning, not a block, because the destination override is explicitly operator-configured and no covert export was found.

- **Files touched:** dist/cli.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.x.ai/v1

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 83.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The install hook runs a dedicated node-pty helper script., The inference key is read from an environment variable or a local AgentVox key file., The inference base URL can be overridden through an environment variable., Inference requests send that key as a bearer token to the configured base URL.

- **Evidence against:** The default inference endpoint is the XAI API, but the override has no destination allowlist.
