React Native HMS Awareness Kit
This report shows the evidence for @hmscore/react-native-hms-awareness@3.8.0-303, the only known version.
AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source enables Huawei analytics by default and sends runtime app and device metadata during Awareness API use. The package does not document this telemetry, so this is suspicious rather than a confirmed malicious data theft; no analytics host is hard-coded in the reviewed source.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.
Trigger
A caller invokes an Awareness capture or barrier API; logger initialization enables telemetry by default.
Impact
Huawei analytics receives app and device metadata. The reviewed event maps do not include captured location or other Awareness results.
Mechanism
The native logger sends Huawei analytics events containing app identifiers and versions, API name, result, timing, device model and network type.
AI rationale
The source enables Huawei analytics by default and sends runtime app and device metadata during Awareness API use. The package does not document this telemetry, so this is suspicious rather than a confirmed malicious data theft; no analytics host is hard-coded in the reviewed source.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 86.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The logger initializes Huawei analytics and enables logging by default when first created.
- Calling an Awareness capture method starts logging and sends an event after the API succeeds.
- The event maps include app ID, app package and version, API name, result, call time, device model and network type.
- The package exposes a method to disable logging, but the README does not document the telemetry.
Evidence against
- The package has no lifecycle scripts, and its JavaScript entry point only exports native modules.
- Telemetry is tied to calls to Awareness APIs; the logger code does not include location or other capture results in its event maps.
- The package provides an explicit disableLogger method.
