Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 13 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Unknown - **Selected version:** 3.3.0 - **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. No concrete malicious lifecycle or stealth persistence was found. Because the critical runtime bundle has incomplete AST coverage while retaining network and command primitives, this should be warned rather than marked clean. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 68.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-11T23:59:56.574Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-12T00:02:09.151Z - **Download time:** 755 ms - **Static scan time:** 770 ms - **AI review time:** 131051 ms - **Total time:** 132577 ms 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:** When imported by a Vite configuration, the plugin can forward selected build logs and context to Datadog. The minified entry bundle contains child-process support, but static source coverage is incomplete. - **Trigger:** A consumer imports and runs datadogVitePlugin during a Vite build. - **Impact:** Build-log content and configured metadata may be sent to the Datadog intake endpoint; no automatic install-time execution was found. - **Evidence paths:** dist/src/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-12T00:02:09.151Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Conditional HTTPS log forwarding and build-time project instrumentation. - **Rationale:** No concrete malicious lifecycle or stealth persistence was found. Because the critical runtime bundle has incomplete AST coverage while retaining network and command primitives, this should be warned rather than marked clean. - **Network endpoints:** https://browser-http-intake.logs.datadoghq.com/v1/input/pub44d5f4eb86e1392037b7501f7adc540e ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 68.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes a compiled Vite plugin entry point that executes when a consumer loads its Vite configuration., The runtime bundle can POST forwarded build-plugin logs and supplied context to a Datadog intake endpoint., The bundle imports child-process support; its minified form and incomplete static AST coverage leave its complete command-use paths unresolved. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., The observed network endpoint is Datadog-owned and the log forwarding is conditional on a forward option., The bundle contains explicit guards intended to reject subprocess use in backend functions. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @datadog/vite-plugin@3.3.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @datadog/vite-plugin@3.3.0 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
