AI Security Review
scanned 18d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource review found no install lifecycle hook or confirmed malicious behavior. The scanner’s account-action locations resolve to local search indexing, while the cloud inventory transfer is gated by analytics configuration and contains resource counts.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A build invokes cloud inventory reporting; development and build commands invoke local search indexing.
Impact
The inspected paths do not establish credential disclosure or an unrequested account action.
Mechanism
The inventory reporter sends resource counts only when analytics is enabled and configured. Search indexing writes generated index files into the project output.
AI rationale
Source review found no install lifecycle hook or confirmed malicious behavior. The scanner’s account-action locations resolve to local search indexing, while the cloud inventory transfer is gated by analytics configuration and contains resource counts.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 88.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest exposes the EventCatalog CLI and its scripts contain no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
- The flagged runtime ranges implement local search-index generation, rebuild it when Markdown files change, and write index output under the project’s output directory; they do not perform account actions.
- Cloud inventory reporting returns unless analytics is enabled and has a tracking ID and write key; when enabled, it posts resource counts to the configured or package-default endpoint.
- The build flow calls the gated inventory reporter, and the flagged SearchModal source passes a result name through its search-highlighting helper.
Evidence against
- Build-time cloud inventory reporting transmits resource counts when analytics is explicitly configured; the inspected code does not send credentials.
