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 CLI permits an unrestricted HTTP or HTTPS API origin and sends its saved installation token to that destination during ordinary commands. This is a conditional credential-exposure risk, while the reviewed agent-session and process-inspection signals do not establish a separate attack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-17T20:58:45.820Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-17T21:01:33.238Z - **Download time:** 770 ms - **Static scan time:** 21027 ms - **AI review time:** 145620 ms - **Total time:** 167418 ms 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 linked CLI command can send its saved Apilift installation token to the configured API origin. The default is apilift.dev, but the source accepts any HTTP or HTTPS origin. - **Trigger:** A user runs a linked CLI command while APILIFT\_URL points to another HTTP or HTTPS origin. - **Impact:** The configured recipient can receive an Apilift installation token. The source does not establish malicious collection or subsequent misuse. - **Evidence paths:** dist/apilift.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-17T21:01:33.238Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI attaches the saved token as a bearer credential and sends the API request using the configured base URL. The inspected path has no host allowlist or recipient-specific confirmation. - **Rationale:** The CLI permits an unrestricted HTTP or HTTPS API origin and sends its saved installation token to that destination during ordinary commands. This is a conditional credential-exposure risk, while the reviewed agent-session and process-inspection signals do not establish a separate attack. - **Files touched:** dist/apilift.js - **Network endpoints:** https://apilift.dev ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** Linking saves the Apilift installation token locally, and ordinary commands pass the saved token to the API client., The client sends the token as a bearer credential; APILIFT\_URL accepts any HTTP or HTTPS origin and supplies the client’s base URL., The flagged collector code locates local Codex and Claude session directories. The session-audit target is a tokenizer string fragment; its relevant code reads transcripts and writes an audit report., The manifest exposes CLI entrypoints. The inspected native-host and capture-server behaviors align with reading a configured extension origin and checking a local process start time. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @apilift/cli@1.5.2. - Review the evidence and your use of @apilift/cli@1.5.2 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
