## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 25 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:** 0.10.203
- **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 runtime places an existing service JWT in telemetry bodies, with only an opt-out guard and a configurable destination. Because the default recipient is the package's intended service, this supports a warning for conditional credential exposure rather than a block.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-16T14:12:36.083Z
- **Finished:** 2026-10-16T14:14:06.226Z
- **Download time:** 1010 ms
- **Static scan time:** 1834 ms
- **AI review time:** 87298 ms
- **Total time:** 90143 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:** Telemetry can disclose the configured Cachly JWT and user fingerprint in an event body. This creates a credential exposure risk when telemetry is enabled.

- **Trigger:** A runtime telemetry event occurs while CACHLY\_NO\_TELEMETRY is not set to 1.

- **Impact:** The telemetry recipient receives the JWT alongside event data; a configured alternate API URL also receives it.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/src/index.js, dist/src/credentials.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T14:14:06.226Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The telemetry request includes the JWT in its JSON body and sends to the configured API URL, which defaults to api.cachly.dev.

- **Rationale:** The runtime places an existing service JWT in telemetry bodies, with only an opt-out guard and a configurable destination. Because the default recipient is the package's intended service, this supports a warning for conditional credential exposure rather than a block.

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.cachly.dev/api/v1/telemetry/mcp

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 86.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The runtime obtains a Cachly JWT from environment variables, saved credentials, or the Cachly entry in .mcp.json., The telemetry helper sends the JWT and user fingerprint in the request body; telemetry is disabled only when CACHLY\_NO\_TELEMETRY is set to 1., Telemetry uses CACHLY\_API\_URL when configured and otherwise sends to api.cachly.dev., The postinstall hook only prints setup instructions and performs no file or network operation.

- **Evidence against:** The default telemetry recipient, api.cachly.dev, is also the package's intended API service., The telemetry request is guarded by an explicit no-telemetry environment setting.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @cachly-dev/mcp-server@0.10.203.

- Review the evidence and your use of @cachly-dev/mcp-server@0.10.203 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.
