## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.128.2
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The inspected first-party behavior is consistent with a CLI that creates apps, checks its version, and uploads releases to Corva. Source for imported registry dependencies including got and cross-spawn was not available in the inspected snapshot, so their runtime behavior remains unresolved.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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 concrete attack was identified in the inspected first-party source. Assessment remains unresolved because implementation source for imported HTTP and process-launch dependencies is absent from the inspected snapshot.

- **Trigger:** A user invokes the CLI; release and template dependency installation are user-requested operations.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized credential transfer or other attack effect was established; the incomplete dependency review prevents a clean determination.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, lib/flows/lib/api.js, bin/create-corva-app.cjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T08:40:58.052Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The release flow uses the API client to upload a package, and the launcher uses a process-spawn dependency. The missing dependency implementations prevent fully resolving those paths.

- **Rationale:** The inspected first-party behavior is consistent with a CLI that creates apps, checks its version, and uploads releases to Corva. Source for imported registry dependencies including got and cross-spawn was not available in the inspected snapshot, so their runtime behavior remains unresolved.

- **Files touched:** package.json, lib/flows/lib/api.js, bin/create-corva-app.cjs

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.corva.ai, https://registry.npmjs.org/@corva/create-app/latest

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 78.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** The manifest exposes a CLI and lists development scripts; its launcher invokes Node with shell execution disabled., Inspected dependency sources show archive construction, terminal styling, and command parser exports; their manifests list test or benchmark scripts., The flagged environment file has a blank API key and Corva endpoint placeholders; the flagged Python test constructs a sample event and invokes its handler., The release flow uploads a zip through the Corva API package endpoint using the API client. The version check fetches package metadata from the npm registry., The package declares and imports got and cross-spawn, but their implementation source is absent from the inspected dependency snapshot.

## Affected versions and remediation

### 10. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 11. High: Semantic Analysis Limited
- **Category:** Scanner Coverage
- **Confidence:** 100.0%
- **Path:** lib/commands/create.js\#virtual:normalized:round1
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@corva/create-app@0.128.2/lib/commands/create.js%23virtual%3Anormalized%3Around1>)

A bounded semantic-analysis stage reached its safety limit; remaining detectors completed, but this package requires AI review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```text
stage = ast_semantic_analysis; reason = ast_parse_error; limitedFiles = 8
```

### 12. High: Previous Version Dangerous Delta
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** lib/flows/steps/release/upload-zip-to-corva.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@corva/create-app@0.128.2/lib/flows/steps/release/upload-zip-to-corva.js>)

This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta
matchedPackage = @corva/create-app@0.128.0
matchedIdentity = npm:QGNvcnZhL2NyZWF0ZS1hcHA:0.128.0
similarity = 0.990
summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file
```
