AI Security Review
scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe install hook performs a concrete destructive global command replacement. It does not establish credential theft, exfiltration, remote payload execution, or foreign AI-agent control-surface mutation, so blocking is not warranted.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
npm postinstall
Impact
A different package's bohr command can be removed and replaced.
Mechanism
global npm-bin unlink and symlink replacement
AI rationale
The install hook performs a concrete destructive global command replacement. It does not establish credential theft, exfiltration, remote payload execution, or foreign AI-agent control-surface mutation, so blocking is not warranted.
Evidence
package.jsoninstall.jsrun.jsbin/bohr-<platform>-<arch>npm global bin/bohr
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 94.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- package.json runs postinstall: node install.js.
- install.js runs npm bin -g during installation.
- install.js deletes an existing global bohr entry when it resolves elsewhere.
- install.js replaces that entry with a symlink to this package's run.js.
Evidence against
- run.js only selects and executes the bundled platform binary with user arguments.
- install.js has no network, credential-harvesting, eval, or agent-config logic.
- No network activity is present in the install-time JavaScript.
