@coinbase/cdp-sdk@1.59.0
SDK for interacting with the Coinbase Developer Platform Wallet API
AI Security Review
scanned 2d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe SDK discloses usage tracking and provides an opt-out, but its runtime analytics also sends custom RPC hostnames and error messages and stacks. This identifying or potentially path-bearing collection warrants a warning; the inspected credential flow targets the configured CDP service.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
SDK client or account operations that track actions or errors.
Impact
These fields can reveal user-specific hostnames or local paths. The README documents usage tracking, but does not disclose the error-message and stack reporting shown in the implementation.
Mechanism
Analytics posts event data to https://cca-lite.coinbase.com/amp. Events can include a custom RPC hostname; error reports include messages and stack traces unless disabled.
AI rationale
The SDK discloses usage tracking and provides an opt-out, but its runtime analytics also sends custom RPC hostnames and error messages and stacks. This identifying or potentially path-bearing collection warrants a warning; the inspected credential flow targets the configured CDP service.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 90.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The README discloses usage tracking to CDP and documents an environment variable to disable it.
- Runtime analytics sends POST events to https://cca-lite.coinbase.com/amp and records a custom RPC hostname in event properties.
- By default, error reporting sends error messages and stack traces; it can be disabled with DISABLE_CDP_ERROR_REPORTING.
Evidence against
- The package entry point exports SDK modules; its top-level code does not show an unrelated action.
- The flagged JWT flow uses the configured CDP base path and sends the token to that service's active-token endpoint.
- The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall lifecycle hook.
