AI Security Review
scanned 21d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source supports a warning for automatic destructive replacement of parent application files. The scanner's malicious label is not substantiated by a self-dependency chain, obfuscation or other confirmed attack behavior.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
npm postinstall execution.
Impact
Existing project files, workspace contents and build artifacts can be lost during installation.
Mechanism
The installer uses fixed relative parent paths, recursive forced deletion and file moves without checking destination ownership or preserving existing contents.
AI rationale
The source supports a warning for automatic destructive replacement of parent application files. The scanner's malicious label is not substantiated by a self-dependency chain, obfuscation or other confirmed attack behavior.
Evidence
package.jsonnpm-post-install.jsprojectworkspace.vscodesettings.jsonmain.jsbuilddisttemp
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 90.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- package.json automatically runs npm-post-install.js and has no runtime self-dependency.
- npm-post-install.js targets parent application paths and forcibly deletes existing destinations before replacement.
- The automatic replacement includes project, workspace, .vscode, settings.json and main.js.
- The installer also recursively deletes parent application build, dist and temp directories.
Evidence against
- The installer is readable and creates ActorJs launchers; no obfuscation or confirmed malicious intent was found.
- The flagged Git and test-suite plugins perform application-related configuration checks and test execution.
