AI Security Review
scanned 8d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource inspection found no install lifecycle hook or confirmed attack behavior. The flagged network and subprocess operations are consistent with caller-invoked webhook and reporting features, and their credentials are sent to the corresponding service or Empirical API proxy.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
A caller invokes the exported webhook helpers or the local report merge helper.
Impact
The inspected behavior creates and queries webhook endpoints or generates local reports; it does not establish credential theft or another attack.
Mechanism
Webhook requests use configured API credentials for the named service or Empirical proxy; report merging runs Playwright’s merge-reports command in the supplied working directory.
AI rationale
Source inspection found no install lifecycle hook or confirmed attack behavior. The flagged network and subprocess operations are consistent with caller-invoked webhook and reporting features, and their credentials are sent to the corresponding service or Empirical API proxy.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- package.json exposes the library entry point and contains development and build scripts, with no install lifecycle hook.
- The generated OpenAPI file contains TypeScript path declarations.
- The three inspected dependency manifests contain test scripts but no install lifecycle hooks; their cited source exports retry, authentication-token, and logging helpers.
- The webhook module creates or queries webhook services only through exported calls, using configured service credentials for the webhook.site API or the Empirical API proxy.
- The reporter’s local merge helper invokes Playwright’s merge-reports command in the caller-supplied working directory.
