AI Security Review
scanned 2d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package’s deploy tool uploads the caller-selected project to its own deployment service, which fits its stated purpose. However, its archive excludes local env variants but not `.env`, so a user-requested deployment can forward secrets stored there; this warrants a warning rather than a malicious verdict.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
An MCP client invokes the `deploy` tool with a project path.
Impact
Secrets stored in an included `.env` file may be sent to the deployment service without being excluded explicitly.
Mechanism
The operation recursively archives files not on its exclusion list and posts the archive with the Fedin deploy token to `https://ai.fedin.cn/api/edgeone-pages/deploy`.
AI rationale
The package’s deploy tool uploads the caller-selected project to its own deployment service, which fits its stated purpose. However, its archive excludes local env variants but not `.env`, so a user-requested deployment can forward secrets stored there; this warrants a warning rather than a malicious verdict.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 89.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The deploy tool is described for use when the user needs to deploy, and accepts a project path.
- The deploy handler passes that supplied path and the Fedin deploy token to the deploy operation.
- The archive excludes `.env.local` and `.env.*.local`, but does not exclude a plain `.env` file.
- Files not excluded are added to the project archive, which is uploaded to `ai.fedin.cn` with the deploy token.
Evidence against
- The project upload happens through the explicit deploy tool flow, matching the package’s stated deployment purpose.
- The upload endpoint is the package’s Fedin deployment service, and the token is sent to that service.
- The archive excludes several common local and generated directories, including `node_modules`, `.git`, and `.env.local`.
