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 source is Carbon typography plus a declared IBM telemetry postinstall whose config disables token, dependency, and function collection. No credential harvesting, obfuscation, self-install chain, or agent-surface writes appear in this package. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-26T06:04:47.539Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-26T06:05:36.176Z - **Download time:** 758 ms - **Static scan time:** 106 ms - **AI review time:** 47772 ms - **Total time:** 48637 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 surface was identified. This is a Carbon typography package whose only install hook calls the declared IBM telemetry CLI with a config that does not collect tokens, dependencies, or functions. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall invokes ibmtelemetry with telemetry.yml; library import only computes type styles. - **Impact:** No confirmed secret theft, remote code execution, persistence, or agent-control mutation from this package source. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-26T06:05:36.176Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook passes a first-party IBM telemetry config. Runtime modules require @carbon/layout and return CSS type values, with no credential, file, or shell behavior in this package. - **Rationale:** The source is Carbon typography plus a declared IBM telemetry postinstall whose config disables token, dependency, and function collection. No credential harvesting, obfuscation, self-install chain, or agent-surface writes appear in this package. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json names @carbon/type 11.68.0 as Carbon typography, with main lib/index.js, module es/index.js, and sass index.scss, and no bin entry., The only lifecycle script is postinstall running ibmtelemetry --config=telemetry.yml, with dependencies limited to @carbon/grid, @carbon/layout, and @ibm/telemetry-js., telemetry.yml sets the IBM metrics endpoint and leaves npm dependency collection null, JS functions empty, and tokens null., lib/index.js only requires @carbon/layout and builds fluid type styles; searches found no eval, child\_process, process.env, or other network code. - **Evidence against:** postinstall can invoke the declared IBM telemetry CLI during install, so a metric may be sent if that dependency runs. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @carbon/type@11.68.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @carbon/type@11.68.0 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.
