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 verification code uses environment values to test the project's configured database and local service, with no external credential transfer found. Runtime usage telemetry is disclosed, sends limited metadata, and has opt-out controls. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-31T12:54:21.543Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-31T12:55:18.446Z - **Download time:** 519 ms - **Static scan time:** 381 ms - **AI review time:** 56002 ms - **Total time:** 56903 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:** No attack identified. The package performs disclosed, opt-out runtime telemetry and user-invoked project verification. - **Trigger:** Telemetry runs when a CLI command starts; verification runs when its command is invoked. - **Impact:** No credential exfiltration, unsolicited account action, or harmful behavior identified. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T12:55:18.446Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Telemetry sends command and runtime metadata to PostHog. Verification reads the project's DATABASE\_URL and runs a local smoke-test service against that configured database. - **Rationale:** The flagged verification code uses environment values to test the project's configured database and local service, with no external credential transfer found. Runtime usage telemetry is disclosed, sends limited metadata, and has opt-out controls. - **Network endpoints:** us.i.posthog.com, o4509208616435714.ingest.us.sentry.io, user-configured DATABASE\_URL host ### 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 has no npm install lifecycle hook; its init and postrun hooks are runtime CLI telemetry., The verification code reads DATABASE\_URL to check the configured database and passes environment values to a locally started smoke-test service., Telemetry uses command and runtime metadata plus Apso account or workspace IDs; it does not send email or file contents., Telemetry has documented opt-outs through configuration and environment variables. - **Evidence against:** CLI commands send usage telemetry by default to PostHog; a first-run notice discloses collection and provides opt-out instructions., The verification code reads project .env values, but the inspected flow uses them for the configured database and local smoke test. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @apso/cli@0.44.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @apso/cli@0.44.0 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.

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. ### 11. Critical: Previous Version Dangerous Delta - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Path:** dist/commands/dev.js - **Public source:** [View source]() 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 = 0.688 summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file ``` ### 12. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() The manifest has no npm install lifecycle hook; its init and postrun hooks are runtime CLI telemetry.
