Changes subsequent agent instructions and expands Codex network permissions across sessions. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 1.1.42 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Global npm installation automatically modifies foreign AI agents' global instructions and Codex network permissions without a separate consent gate. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-30T09:53:12.814Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-30T09:54:38.337Z - **Download time:** 516 ms - **Static scan time:** 631 ms - **AI review time:** 84374 ms - **Total time:** 85523 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:** Global npm installation automatically modifies foreign AI agents' global instructions and Codex network permissions without a separate consent gate. - **Trigger:** Global npm installation with lifecycle scripts enabled. - **Impact:** Changes subsequent agent instructions and expands Codex network permissions across sessions. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, lib/install.js, lib/targets.js, lib/paths.js, lib/codex-config.js, lib/persona.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-30T09:54:38.337Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The postinstall hook calls the installer, which resolves default global agent destinations, writes persona blocks, and enables Codex workspace network access. - **Attack narrative:** The global-install postinstall hook automatically runs installation with default settings. It targets multiple foreign agents' global instruction files and Codex configuration, prepending package instructions and enabling network access. Backups and the local-install guard limit damage but do not provide consent for these automatic control-surface changes. - **Rationale:** Inspected source establishes unconsented postinstall mutation of foreign, global AI-agent control surfaces. This meets the blocking policy despite the package-aligned purpose and file backups. - **Files touched:** ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md, ~/.agents/AGENTS.md, ~/.codex/AGENTS.md, ~/.codex/config.toml, ~/.gemini/GEMINI.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** package.json registers an automatic postinstall hook., scripts/postinstall.js invokes global installation without a consent prompt when npm\_config\_global is true or 1., lib/install.js applies Codex configuration and persona changes to resolved agent destinations., lib/targets.js selects global Codex instruction and configuration files by default; lib/paths.js resolves them into the user's home directory., lib/codex-config.js enables network access and writes the resulting configuration., lib/persona.js prepends the bundled persona to existing agent instructions and writes the file. - **Evidence against:** Local npm installation skips automatic setup., Modified configuration and instruction files receive backups. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @babylonjs-toolkit/agent@1.1.42. - Avoid installing @babylonjs-toolkit/agent@1.1.42. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
