AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe crash reporter sends runtime error details without consent for TUI unhandled rejections, and non-interactive crashes default to approval. Because reports include stack traces that may contain local paths, this is undisclosed identifying telemetry and warrants a warning.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
An unhandled promise rejection while the TUI is active; also a crash in a non-interactive process.
Impact
Error messages and stack traces may disclose local paths or other identifying details to the configured Genesis endpoint.
Mechanism
The TUI rejection handler submits directly to the Genesis feedback endpoint without prompting. Other non-interactive crash handling treats the report prompt as yes by default.
AI rationale
The crash reporter sends runtime error details without consent for TUI unhandled rejections, and non-interactive crashes default to approval. Because reports include stack traces that may contain local paths, this is undisclosed identifying telemetry and warrants a warning.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 91.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The TUI silently submits crash reports for unhandled rejections without asking the user.
- Crash reports include the error stack trace, which can contain local file paths.
- Outside the TUI, non-interactive input defaults the crash-report prompt to yes.
- Reports go to the configured Genesis endpoint, defaulting to http://localhost:8001.
Evidence against
- The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall lifecycle scripts.
- The flagged grid sync and pull paths are command handlers that send the token to Aitherium’s configured gateway.
