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 published code is Carbon typography helpers, and the only lifecycle script is the documented IBM telemetry CLI with an empty collection scope pointed at IBM's metrics host. That install-time vendor ping is package-aligned and does not show harvesting, payload execution, or agent-surface mutation. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-26T06:04:19.503Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-26T06:05:30.631Z - **Download time:** 763 ms - **Static scan time:** 112 ms - **AI review time:** 70253 ms - **Total time:** 71128 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. This is a Carbon typography package whose only install hook launches the vendor IBM telemetry CLI with a config that does not collect dependencies, tokens, or functions. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall, if the consumer does not disable IBM telemetry. - **Impact:** No credential theft, file mutation, remote payload, or agent-control write is present in this package. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-26T06:05:30.631Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook runs ibmtelemetry against telemetry.yml. Published JS only computes font styles and loads @carbon/layout. - **Rationale:** The published code is Carbon typography helpers, and the only lifecycle script is the documented IBM telemetry CLI with an empty collection scope pointed at IBM's metrics host. That install-time vendor ping is package-aligned and does not show harvesting, payload execution, or agent-surface mutation. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json only adds a postinstall that runs ibmtelemetry with telemetry.yml, plus Carbon layout/grid and @ibm/telemetry-js dependencies., telemetry.yml sends to IBM's metrics endpoint and sets npm dependencies, JS tokens, and function collection to null or empty., lib/index.js is typography style helpers that require @carbon/layout, with no eval, shell, credential, or network calls in package source. - **Evidence against:** The postinstall hook can start the separate IBM telemetry CLI on install, so a metrics request is possible if that dependency runs. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @carbon/type@11.66.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @carbon/type@11.66.0 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. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = ibmtelemetry --config=telemetry.yml ``` ### 2. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = ibmtelemetry --config=telemetry.yml ``` ### 3. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 4. Low: High Entropy Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 55.0% Package source contains high-entropy string patterns. ### 5. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() package.json only adds a postinstall that runs ibmtelemetry with telemetry.yml, plus Carbon layout/grid and @ibm/telemetry-js dependencies. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json "postinstall": "ibmtelemetry --config=telemetry.yml" }, "dependencies": { "@carbon/grid": "^11.61.0", "@ ``` ### 6. Low: Suspicious Dependency Evidence - **Category:** Dependency - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** telemetry.yml - **Public source:** [View source]() telemetry.yml sends to IBM's metrics endpoint and sets npm dependencies, JS tokens, and function collection to null or empty. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```yaml version: 1 projectId: 43a17f29-6354-4c01-b4ec-920a1248f0f7 endpoint: https://www-api.ibm.com/ibm-telemetry/v1/metrics collect: npm: dependencies: null js: functions: {} tokens: null ``` ### 7. Low: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** lib/index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() lib/index.js is typography style helpers that require @carbon/layout, with no eval, shell, credential, or network calls in package source.
