- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Source inspection found no install-time attack behavior. The flagged credential flow authenticates WalletLink event requests using session values supplied to the relay, and no unrelated credential recipient or attack behavior was established.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified. The inspected authenticated requests are part of the WalletLink event relay included with the wallet SDK.

- **Trigger:** A consumer uses the WalletLink relay to retrieve wallet responses or acknowledge received events.

- **Impact:** The reviewed flow supports wallet event delivery; it does not establish unrelated credential disclosure or another attack effect.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T20:42:33.842Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The relay sends session credentials to the configured WalletLink API URL and filters fetched events for wallet responses.

- **Rationale:** Source inspection found no install-time attack behavior. The flagged credential flow authenticates WalletLink event requests using session values supplied to the relay, and no unrelated credential recipient or attack behavior was established.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/174\_clerk.native\_2e1f0f\_6.42.0.js, dist/coinbase-wallet-sdk\_clerk.browser\_5761f4\_6.42.0.js, dist/clerk.js, dist/clerk.mjs, dist/clerk.no-rhc.mjs, dist/clerk.no-rhc.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-a29f7b22-b400-4352-aa1b-e29a2a5f94ea/0/npm-linux/dist/base-account.js, dist/clerk.legacy.browser.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-a29f7b22-b400-4352-aa1b-e29a2a5f94ea/0/npm-linux/dist/base-account.min.js, dist/coinbase-wallet-sdk\_clerk.legacy.browser\_84ebb5\_6.42.0.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-a29f7b22-b400-4352-aa1b-e29a2a5f94ea/1/npm-linux/dist/sign/walletlink/relay/connection/WalletLinkHTTP.js, dist/541\_clerk.native\_2e1f0f\_6.42.0.js, dist/569\_clerk.native\_2e1f0f\_6.42.0.js, dist/base-account-sdk\_clerk.browser\_5761f4\_6.42.0.js, dist/base-account-sdk\_clerk.legacy.browser\_84ebb5\_6.42.0.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 89.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes Clerk runtime bundles and lists build and development scripts; it has no install lifecycle hook., The bundled WalletLink relay sends session-authenticated requests to its configured API URL to fetch unseen wallet responses and mark those events as seen., The inspected entrypoints and dependency files include Clerk bundles and Base Account, Coinbase Wallet, and Stripe SDK code; no unrelated credential transfer or other attack behavior was identified.
