Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration - **Selected version:** 8.20.0 - **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The source shows conditional credential exposure because the generated YouTrack configuration uses a placeholder default endpoint and requests attach the local token to that endpoint. The token flow is tied to user-configured YouTrack use, so the evidence does not establish a malicious attack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-22T12:23:53.891Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-22T12:24:42.201Z - **Download time:** 1792 ms - **Static scan time:** 2765 ms - **AI review time:** 43752 ms - **Total time:** 48310 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:** YouTrack integration sends a locally stored token to the configured service URL, which defaults to a placeholder domain. No confirmed malicious transfer was established, but completing setup without changing that default could expose the token. - **Trigger:** A user configures a YouTrack token and invokes a feature that makes a YouTrack request. - **Impact:** If the default URL remains in place, the token may be disclosed to that destination. - **Evidence paths:** dist/plugin.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-22T12:24:42.201Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The request helper puts the token in an Authorization bearer header; the generated configuration defaults the base URL to youtrack.example.com. - **Rationale:** The source shows conditional credential exposure because the generated YouTrack configuration uses a placeholder default endpoint and requests attach the local token to that endpoint. The token flow is tied to user-configured YouTrack use, so the evidence does not establish a malicious attack. - **Files touched:** dist/plugin.js - **Network endpoints:** https://youtrack.example.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The YouTrack configuration generator defaults the service URL to youtrack.example.com., The YouTrack request helper sends its supplied token as a bearer credential to the request URL., The scaffold creates a token placeholder and directs the user to replace it before running /wk-status. - **Evidence against:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook; the bundled plugin is the runtime entrypoint., The YouTrack token is read from a configured local file, and requests use the configured service base URL. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @brainervirus/workit-opencode@8.20.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @brainervirus/workit-opencode@8.20.0 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.
