AI Security Review
scanned 18d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe scanner labels resolve to search indexing, product analytics, and a dynamic import helper; inspected source does not establish malicious behavior. The package has no install lifecycle hook in its manifest, and GitHub credentials are used for GitHub content requests.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Running the catalog build or development workflow activates the corresponding indexing and analytics code.
Impact
No credential theft, unrelated account action, or malicious mutation was established.
Mechanism
Search code generates Pagefind files; cloud inventory reporting checks configured analytics enablement and credentials before sending.
AI rationale
The scanner labels resolve to search indexing, product analytics, and a dynamic import helper; inspected source does not establish malicious behavior. The package has no install lifecycle hook in its manifest, and GitHub credentials are used for GitHub content requests.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 94.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest exposes a CLI and ordinary development/build scripts; no install lifecycle hook appears in the scripts inspected.
- The flagged runtime ranges implement Pagefind search-index generation and rebuilds, including removal of the resolved index output before writing a new index.
- The flagged evaluation code constructs a dynamic import helper for a URL as part of the search component.
- Build analytics reports catalog metadata to an EventCatalog-labeled analytics event; cloud inventory reporting requires enabled analytics, a tracking ID, and a write key.
- The GitHub source provider attaches its configured token to provider-generated content requests; no unrelated credential recipient was found.
Evidence against
- Build analytics transmits catalog and build metadata, including organization and catalog identifiers, to its named analytics collector.
