- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The source matches the package's stated OTA-update purpose. Its network requests use the app-supplied server URL and report update identifiers and app/runtime versions; the native downloader requires HTTPS and verifies a checksum.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified. The package provides an OTA update flow configured by the app using it.

- **Trigger:** The app calls configure(); by default, that call starts an update check.

- **Impact:** The observed requests support update checks and limited update-event reporting; no unrelated credential collection or transmission was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T17:49:32.570Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Requests go to the configured serverUrl. The native downloader requires HTTPS and verifies the update's SHA-256 hash.

- **Rationale:** The source matches the package's stated OTA-update purpose. Its network requests use the app-supplied server URL and report update identifiers and app/runtime versions; the native downloader requires HTTPS and verifies a checksum.

- **Network endpoints:** configured serverUrl/api/public/v1/updates/check, configured serverUrl/api/public/v1/updates/events, HTTPS URL supplied by the configured update server

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package is an OTA update SDK; its entry point re-exports the core and UI modules., Network requests use the serverUrl supplied to configure(), which requires an app ID and server URL., Update checks and event reports send app, version, platform, release, and installation identifiers to that configured server., Downloaded updates require HTTPS and are checked against a SHA-256 hash before being unpacked.

The package is an OTA update SDK; its entry point re-exports the core and UI modules.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```typescript
/**
 * @fireota/react-native — over-the-air updates for React Native from your own Firebase project.
 *
 * Zero-code setup: `npx fireota init` wires the native bundle loader and wraps your root
 * component with <FireOTAProvider>, which checks for update
```

### 7. Low: Ai Review Evidence

- **Confidence:** 96.0%
- **Path:** src/core.ts
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@fireota/react-native@0.5.1/src/core.ts>)

Network requests use the serverUrl supplied to configure(), which requires an app ID and server URL.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```typescript
export function configure(options: FireOTAConfig): Promise<void> {
  // Safe to call more than once (e.g. index.js and <FireOTAProvider>): the first call wins.
  if (configuring) return configuring;
  configuring = doConfigure(options).catch((error: unknown) => {
    configuring = null;
    throw error;
  });
  return configuring;
}

async function doConfigure(options: FireOTAConfig) {
  if (!options.appId || !options.serverUrl) {
    throw new
```

### 8. Low: Ai Review Evidence

- **Path:** src/core.ts
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@fireota/react-native@0.5.1/src/core.ts>)

Update checks and event reports send app, version, platform, release, and installation identifiers to that configured server.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```typescript
async function post<T>(path: string, body: unknown): Promise<T> {
  const response = await fetch(`${requireConfig().serverUrl.replace(/\/+$/, "")}${path}`, {
    method: "POST",
    headers: { "content-type": "application/json", "x-fireota-sdk": `react-native/${PROTOCOL_VERSION}` },
    body: JSON.stringify(body),
  });
  const json = (await response.json()) as { success: boolean;
```

Downloaded updates require HTTPS and are checked against a SHA-256 hash before being unpacked.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```text
/** Streams the package to disk, verifies its SHA-256, then unpacks it atomically. */
