## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 14 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.43.2
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The flagged network and execution behavior is tied to explicit project checks and the CLI’s disclosed, opt-out runtime telemetry. No install-time collection, credential exfiltration, or unrelated account action was found.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T12:54:03.350Z

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:** No attack was identified; the reviewed network and process behavior serves CLI telemetry and user-requested local project checks.

- **Trigger:** Telemetry runs when a CLI command starts; smoke tests run when the user invokes \`apso test smoke\`.

- **Impact:** No malicious impact identified. Smoke tests create and delete test rows as described by the command; telemetry reports usage and Apso workspace context.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T12:54:44.850Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The verifier checks the project server on 127.0.0.1 and may connect to the database configured by the user. Runtime telemetry has a first-run notice and opt-out controls.

- **Rationale:** The flagged network and execution behavior is tied to explicit project checks and the CLI’s disclosed, opt-out runtime telemetry. No install-time collection, credential exfiltration, or unrelated account action was found.

- **Network endpoints:** 127.0.0.1, us.i.posthog.com, o4509208616435714.ingest.us.sentry.io, DATABASE\_URL hostname (user-configured)

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes the normal Apso CLI entry point and declares no install lifecycle script., The verifier sends requests to a server bound to 127.0.0.1 for health checks and CRUD smoke tests., Smoke tests run from the explicit \`apso test smoke\` command; the CLI description says they create and delete test rows., Runtime telemetry is disclosed, can be disabled, and reports CLI and platform fields plus Apso workspace context.

A single source file combines environment access, network access, and code or shell execution; review context before blocking.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L12: const fs = tslib_1.__importStar(require("fs"));
L13: const http = tslib_1.__importStar(require("http"));
L14: const net = tslib_1.__importStar(require("net"));
...
L27: return new Promise((resolve) => {
L28: const p = (0, child_process_1.spawn)(cmd, args, { cwd, env: { ...process.env, ...env } });
L29: let output = "";
```

### 8. Critical: Credential Exfiltration
- **Category:** Source

L29: let output = "";
L30: p.stdout.on("data", (d) => {
L31: output += d;
...
L230: });
L231: res.on("end", () => { var _a; return resolve({ status: (_a = res.statusCode) !== null && _a !== void 0 ? _a : 0, body: text }); });
```

kind = build_helper
sizeBytes = 30
magicHex = [redacted]
```

### 13. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 14. Critical: Previous Version Dangerous Delta
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** dist/commands/dev.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@apso/cli@0.43.2/dist/commands/dev.js>)

This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta
matchedPackage = @apso/cli@0.28.0
matchedIdentity = npm:QGFwc28vY2xp:0.28.0
similarity = 0.700
summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file
