Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — Exposes personal Git identity and repository metadata during installation. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration - **Selected version:** 0.8.2 - **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: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The automatic postinstall reports Git display name, email, and repository-owner metadata to the vendor’s endpoint without consent. This meets the install-time data-exfiltration rule. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-29T20:35:14.076Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-29T20:35:52.715Z - **Download time:** 261 ms - **Static scan time:** 153 ms - **AI review time:** 38224 ms - **Total time:** 38639 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:** Postinstall sends Git identity and repository-owner details to the package vendor’s telemetry endpoint without an installation-time consent prompt. - **Trigger:** Automatic npm postinstall. - **Impact:** Exposes personal Git identity and repository metadata during installation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, install/postinstall.cjs, install/git-context.cjs, install/collector.cjs, install/policy.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-29T20:35:52.715Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Reads global and consuming-checkout Git configuration, includes discovered display name, email, and repository owner in an installation event, then POSTs the event batch to hashbrown.dev. - **Attack narrative:** The package runs a postinstall collector automatically. It reads Git identity and, when it can identify the consuming checkout, repository-owner information. Outside CI, it adds that identity to an installation event and sends the batch to hashbrown.dev without asking the installer. Because the event includes personal Git details, this is install-time data exfiltration. - **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall reports Git display name, email, and repository-owner metadata to the vendor’s endpoint without consent. This meets the install-time data-exfiltration rule. - **Files touched:** ~/.gitconfig, ~/.config/git/config, consuming checkout .git/config, consuming checkout .git/config.worktree, ~/.hashbrown/installation-id - **Network endpoints:** https://hashbrown.dev/\_/growth/collect/v1/install ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The package manifest runs install/postinstall.cjs automatically after installation., The install collector reads Git configuration and extracts the configured display name and email; it can also derive a repository owner from the consuming checkout’s origin., Outside CI, the collector attaches discovered Git identity to the installation event and sends the event batch automatically., The default collection endpoint is https://hashbrown.dev/\_/growth/collect/v1/install. - **Evidence against:** The runtime entry point only re-exports the package’s adapter and error class., The installation event also includes ordinary package, platform, runtime, and package-manager metadata. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @hashbrownai/typesafe@0.8.2. - Avoid installing @hashbrownai/typesafe@0.8.2. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
