Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The scanner's lifecycle warning corresponds to package-aligned IBM telemetry, configured for IBM's endpoint. The required Carbon dependency manifests and entrypoints support ordinary design-token exports; no concrete attack behavior was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-21T05:59:30.123Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-21T06:00:08.584Z - **Download time:** 1024 ms - **Static scan time:** 943 ms - **AI review time:** 36494 ms - **Total time:** 38461 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:** No attack was identified. The package runs IBM telemetry after installation, using IBM's endpoint and a configuration with limited collection settings. - **Trigger:** Package installation triggers the postinstall script. - **Impact:** No concrete attack impact was established from the inspected source. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-21T06:00:08.584Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The script runs the IBM telemetry CLI with telemetry.yml; inspected Carbon dependencies use the same pattern. - **Rationale:** The scanner's lifecycle warning corresponds to package-aligned IBM telemetry, configured for IBM's endpoint. The required Carbon dependency manifests and entrypoints support ordinary design-token exports; no concrete attack behavior was found. - **Files touched:** telemetry.yml - **Network endpoints:** https://www-api.ibm.com/ibm-telemetry/v1/metrics ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package's postinstall runs IBM's telemetry CLI with its bundled configuration., The configuration points to IBM's telemetry endpoint and leaves function collection empty and token collection null., The inspected Carbon dependency entrypoints export generated design tokens and helpers. - **Evidence against:** The inspected Carbon dependencies use the same IBM telemetry postinstall and IBM endpoint pattern., No attack behavior was identified in the inspected required entrypoints. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @carbon/themes@11.84.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @carbon/themes@11.84.0 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.
