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 reviewed JavaScript associates the native add-ons with terminal input handling, but offline analysis does not resolve all shipped binaries. No attack is established; the unresolved executable behavior requires manual review. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-26T19:31:06.021Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-26T19:32:01.633Z - **Download time:** 1282 ms - **Static scan time:** 6185 ms - **AI review time:** 48145 ms - **Total time:** 55612 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:** The package includes platform-specific native terminal helpers whose behavior remains unresolved after offline analysis. - **Trigger:** The TUI attempts to load a helper on supported Darwin or Windows architectures; the Windows terminal path calls its virtual-terminal input function. - **Impact:** The effects of the unresolved native code cannot be determined from this inspection. - **Evidence paths:** dist/node\_modules/@diffexai/diffex-tui/dist/native-modifiers.js, dist/node\_modules/@diffexai/diffex-tui/dist/terminal.js, .lpm-inspection-0qqZ2X/0-0e51e550acf5.txt, .lpm-inspection-0qqZ2X/1-7657cd6bd999.txt, .lpm-inspection-0qqZ2X/2-5bc2f926c6a6.txt, .lpm-inspection-0qqZ2X/3-e40df72050ed.txt - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-26T19:32:01.633Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The JavaScript selects and requires bundled native add-ons, but the available analysis does not fully resolve their behavior. - **Rationale:** The reviewed JavaScript associates the native add-ons with terminal input handling, but offline analysis does not resolve all shipped binaries. No attack is established; the unresolved executable behavior requires manual review. - **Files touched:** dist/node\_modules/@diffexai/diffex-tui/native/darwin/prebuilds/darwin-x64/darwin-modifiers.node, dist/node\_modules/@diffexai/diffex-tui/native/darwin/prebuilds/darwin-arm64/darwin-modifiers.node, dist/node\_modules/@diffexai/diffex-tui/native/win32/prebuilds/win32-arm64/win32-console-mode.node, dist/node\_modules/@diffexai/diffex-tui/native/win32/prebuilds/win32-x64/win32-console-mode.node ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **AI review observations:** The TUI dynamically loads platform-specific native helpers for supported architectures., The native analysis leaves both Darwin add-ons unresolved, cannot analyze the Windows ARM add-on, and reports an unmapped target in the Windows x64 add-on., The Windows TUI calls the native helper to enable virtual-terminal input. - **Evidence against:** The inspected Windows TUI call site uses the helper for terminal input handling; this does not resolve the helpers' complete behavior. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @diffexai/diffex@0.3.3. - Review the evidence and your use of @diffexai/diffex@0.3.3 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.
