## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 4 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.6.3
- **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 package otherwise appears to provide Projen project templates and has no install hook or import-time credential flow. Its default Dev Container setup enables plaintext Git credential storage, a real security risk that warrants a warning.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The package configures generated Dev Containers to save Git credentials in plaintext.

- **Trigger:** A user creates a project with these defaults and starts its Dev Container, which runs the post-create commands.

- **Impact:** Anyone who can access that home directory or its persisted container data may be able to read stored Git credentials.

- **Evidence paths:** lib/core/devcontainer.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T12:09:56.063Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The generated configuration invokes \`git config --global credential.helper store\`, causing Git to persist credentials unencrypted in the container user's home.

- **Rationale:** The package otherwise appears to provide Projen project templates and has no install hook or import-time credential flow. Its default Dev Container setup enables plaintext Git credential storage, a real security risk that warrants a warning.

- **Files touched:** .devcontainer/devcontainer.json, ~/.gitconfig, ~/.git-credentials

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The generated Dev Container runs \`git config --global credential.helper store\`, which stores Git credentials unencrypted in the container user's home., The package generates \`.devcontainer/devcontainer.json\` as part of its project defaults.

- **Evidence against:** The package has no npm lifecycle scripts., Its main entry exports project classes; the reviewed entry contains no credential collection or network activity., The project defaults disable npm publishing.
