AI Security Review
scanned 28d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection found no lifecycle hooks or concrete malicious behavior. The webhook credential use is directed to webhook.site for its token API, while dynamic execution is limited to a caller-invoked cache helper.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A caller invokes the webhook helper or the overlay cache execution function.
Impact
The inspected behavior does not establish credential exfiltration or another attack.
Mechanism
The webhook helper uses configured credentials with webhook.site; the cache helper runs cached code against a supplied Playwright page.
AI rationale
Source inspection found no lifecycle hooks or concrete malicious behavior. The webhook credential use is directed to webhook.site for its token API, while dynamic execution is limited to a caller-invoked cache helper.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 89.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json points to the package’s JavaScript entrypoint and declares its exports.
- The local report helper invokes Playwright’s merge-reports command with explicit arguments and the current working directory.
- The webhook helper reads an explicitly configured webhook.site API key and sends it to webhook.site’s token endpoint for token creation.
- The upstream oracle imports child-process support as part of a runner test harness.
- The overlay cache runs stored code against a supplied Playwright page when its exported execution function is called.
Evidence against
- No lifecycle scripts are declared in package.json.
- Inspected webhook code handles webhook.site and inbox token creation and queries; it does not show environment or credential harvesting to an unrelated destination.
- The dynamic execution is confined to the overlay cache helper, which reads a package-specific cache and executes against a caller-provided page.
