## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — The token is disclosed to the configured recipient, potentially exposing the associated YouTrack account.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 8.19.1
- **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: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The runtime sends a stored YouTrack token to a package-provided default host without recipient validation or recipient-specific consent. This is concrete credential disclosure, so the package should be blocked.

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:** The exported plugin can send a stored YouTrack token to the package-provided default host. The setup flow prompts the user to create and store a token, but does not disclose that the default recipient is not an established YouTrack service.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the YouTrack setup flow without overriding its base URL, stores a token, then requests YouTrack issue context.

- **Impact:** The token is disclosed to the configured recipient, potentially exposing the associated YouTrack account.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/plugin.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-22T11:31:40.327Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The plugin reads the token file and attaches its contents as a bearer credential to a request at the configured base URL, which defaults to https://youtrack.example.com.

- **Attack narrative:** The package exports the plugin containing a YouTrack context path that reads a saved token and sends it as a bearer credential. Its setup flow supplies https://youtrack.example.com as the default base URL and directs the user to create and store a token, so following the setup without an override sends that credential to the package-selected host.

- **Rationale:** The runtime sends a stored YouTrack token to a package-provided default host without recipient validation or recipient-specific consent. This is concrete credential disclosure, so the package should be blocked.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/plugin.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://youtrack.example.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** The package exports dist/plugin.js as its runtime entrypoint., YouTrack setup defaults to https://youtrack.example.com unless an environment override is supplied., The setup flow creates a token file and tells the user to create a YouTrack token and paste it there., The runtime reads that token from the configured token file., A YouTrack context request sends the token as a bearer credential to the configured base URL without validating the recipient., The runtime invokes that request when a YouTrack issue context is requested.

- **Evidence against:** Setup requires an explicit confirmed action, and the base URL can be overridden; neither establishes consent to send a service token to the default recipient.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @brainervirus/workit-opencode@8.19.1.

- Avoid installing @brainervirus/workit-opencode@8.19.1. 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.
