AI Security Review
scanned 21d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection confirms unsafe automatic deletion outside the package, warranting a warning. The inspected code does not establish malicious intent or the required malicious lifecycle self-dependency chain.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
npm installation with lifecycle scripts enabled.
Impact
Installing in an unexpected directory layout can erase existing project files and configuration.
Mechanism
The installer uses fixed ancestor paths, forcefully removes existing directories, and moves packaged application files into their place without checking ownership.
AI rationale
Source inspection confirms unsafe automatic deletion outside the package, warranting a warning. The inspected code does not establish malicious intent or the required malicious lifecycle self-dependency chain.
Evidence
package.jsonnpm-post-install.jsbuilddisttemp.vscodeprojectworkspacemain.jssettings.jsonrepos.json
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 93.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- package.json automatically invokes npm-post-install.js and has no runtime self-dependency.
- The installer targets a directory three levels above its own location without validating that it belongs to ActorJs.
- The installer recursively deletes build, dist, and temp directories.
- The automatic setup deletes existing project, workspace, and editor configuration before moving replacement files.
- The flagged test-suite module loads test-suite files through the test engine; it does not establish a separate attack.
Evidence against
- The installer transparently creates ActorJs launchers and installs a same-vendor build package.
- Inspected source showed no credential exfiltration, deliberate obfuscation, or foreign AI-agent control mutation.
