## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 21 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 1.3.11
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The credential source, unrestricted destination selection, and network send path are all present in the active CLI. There is no install lifecycle hook, so the concrete risk is conditional rather than automatic malware behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-20T02:26:56.460Z
- **Finished:** 2026-09-20T02:28:03.459Z
- **Download time:** 763 ms
- **Static scan time:** 2496 ms
- **AI review time:** 63739 ms
- **Total time:** 66999 ms

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** An operator who sets FLYDOCS\_RELAY\_URL can direct a stored FlyDocs API key to an arbitrary relay host. The same request can include project context.

- **Trigger:** Run a CLI command that uses the relay after setting FLYDOCS\_RELAY\_URL.

- **Impact:** Conditional exposure of the FlyDocs API key and submitted project context to the selected endpoint.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-20T02:28:03.459Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Forwards a resolved API key to an unrestricted environment-selected endpoint.

- **Rationale:** The credential source, unrestricted destination selection, and network send path are all present in the active CLI. There is no install lifecycle hook, so the concrete risk is conditional rather than automatic malware behavior.

- **Files touched:** .flydocs/credentials.json, ~/.flydocs/credentials

- **Network endpoints:** https://app.flydocs.ai/api/relay, FLYDOCS\_RELAY\_URL

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The CLI resolves a FlyDocs API key from project and global credential files., The relay destination is fully overridden by FLYDOCS\_RELAY\_URL, while requests attach the resolved API key as a Bearer credential., A relay request sends project context to the selected base URL with those credential headers.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle script., The flagged Claude hook is template code copied only during the user-invoked init flow., Claude OAuth plan-status requests target api.anthropic.com directly and are gated by plan-status consent.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @flydocs/cli@1.3.11.

- Review the evidence and your use of @flydocs/cli@1.3.11 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
