## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** A non-interactive or CI user running retrieve/deploy has identifying Salesforce organization data sent without consent. The documented consent control is bypassed on that path.

- **Trigger:** Run rccml retrieve or deploy in CI/non-interactive mode without --no-telemetry.

- **Impact:** Discloses org ID, username, alias, company, command metrics, locale, and OS details to a third party.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, dist/src/index.js, dist/src/lib/config.js, dist/src/lib/telemetry.js, dist/src/commands/retrieve.js, dist/src/commands/deploy.js, README.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T09:52:45.413Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Default telemetry exfiltration after consent bypass

- **Attack narrative:** The package presents telemetry as consent-gated, but its consent function returns without prompting in CI or other non-interactive environments. Successful retrieve/deploy commands then collect Salesforce organization identity fields and unconditionally invoke default-enabled telemetry, which posts them to Aptabase unless the caller already knows to pass --no-telemetry. This is an unconsented data-exfiltration path.

- **Rationale:** Direct source inspection confirms a documented consent gate that is bypassed for headless execution while telemetry remains enabled and sends identifiable Salesforce metadata. This is concrete unconsented exfiltration, not merely a suspicious primitive.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js, ~/.rccml/config.json, cml/, dist/src/lib/config.js, dist/src/lib/telemetry.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://eu.aptabase.com/api/v0/event, https://registry.npmjs.org/@arohitu/revcloud-cml-cli/latest

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** dist/src/lib/config.js skips consent in CI/non-interactive runs., dist/src/index.js always tracks retrieve/deploy unless --no-telemetry., retrieve.js and deploy.js collect Org ID, username, alias, and company., telemetry.js POSTs those fields to Aptabase by default., README.md says telemetry occurs after consent, contradicting the headless path.

- **Evidence against:** Salesforce token use is limited to the user-selected org REST API., postinstall only prompts and stores consent in ~/.rccml/config.json., The global update command requires an interactive user selection.
