## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 23 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:** 1.0.40
- **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 runtime behavior is consistent with an agent SDK and does not establish a concrete attack. The supplied dependency evidence leaves a selected optional platform dependency unresolved, which prevents a clean verdict.

## Latest scan

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 source. The package includes a caller-invoked local executor, while a declared Linux ARM64 optional dependency remains unresolved.

- **Trigger:** The inspected executor is loaded when the runtime requests local agent execution; the unresolved dependency is relevant when that platform-specific package is selected.

- **Impact:** No attack impact was confirmed; assessment of the unresolved dependency is needed before clearing the package.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/esm/index.js, dist/esm/331.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-20T18:27:41.607Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The executor can run shell commands as part of agent operation. The unresolved dependency source could not be assessed from the supplied evidence.

- **Rationale:** The inspected runtime behavior is consistent with an agent SDK and does not establish a concrete attack. The supplied dependency evidence leaves a selected optional platform dependency unresolved, which prevents a clean verdict.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 75.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** The package exports its CommonJS and ESM runtime through the declared entrypoints in package.json., The ESM entrypoint loads the local executor lazily, and that executor logs shell commands with their working directory., The manifest declares a platform-specific optional dependency for Linux ARM64; its source remains unresolved in the supplied dependency evidence.

- **Evidence against:** The inspected executor behavior is consistent with a caller-invoked agent SDK capability; no concrete attack behavior was established in the inspected excerpts.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @cursor/sdk@1.0.40.

- Review the evidence and your use of @cursor/sdk@1.0.40 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.
