AI Security Review
scanned 15d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiDirect inspection resolved the scanner’s credential and evaluation hints: license claims are reduced to status and expiry analytics, GitHub credentials go to GitHub, and the flagged UI code renders search results and examples. The package has no install hook, and the inspected telemetry is tied to CLI use with opt-out controls or explicit cloud analytics configuration.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Running EventCatalog CLI commands that build, start, or develop a catalog; cloud inventory reporting also requires enabled configuration and credentials.
Impact
The inspected behavior supports product analytics and catalog rendering; it does not establish credential theft or another attack.
Mechanism
The CLI sends event metadata and a short catalog content hash to its analytics endpoint. Cloud inventory uses a configured endpoint and write key; GitHub tokens are attached to GitHub requests.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 90.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest exposes a CLI entry point and lists ordinary development and build scripts; it has no install lifecycle hook.
- The flagged runtime operations are CLI process handling and EventCatalog catalog setup.
- The flagged search and schema-viewer code handles UI components and displays examples; the inspected excerpts show no code evaluation.
- The inspected dependency snapshots expose AI SDK hooks and Astro markdown and MDX rendering behavior.
- CLI telemetry has explicit opt-out checks and sends EventCatalog event metadata to its analytics endpoint; cloud inventory reporting requires enabled analytics, a tracking ID, and a write key.
- The local license file is parsed for claims, while GitHub tokens are used in requests directed to GitHub; reported license analytics contain status and expiry fields.
