## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 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:** 2.17.0
- **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 configurable API and OAuth destinations can receive existing Hostinger credentials without a source-level host restriction, creating a conditional credential exposure risk. The defaults are Hostinger services, and the API transfer requires an invoked operation, so the evidence supports a warning rather than a block.

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:** The runtime can send an existing Hostinger bearer token to a configured API destination. This creates conditional credential exposure if the destination is set to an untrusted host.

- **Trigger:** The server handles an execute request while API\_BASE\_URL points to an untrusted destination; OAuth refresh requests use OAUTH\_ISSUER.

- **Impact:** A configured recipient could receive a Hostinger access token or refresh token.

- **Evidence paths:** src/core/runtime.js, src/core/oauth.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T07:09:28.072Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The runtime attaches its bearer token to API requests without binding it to the default Hostinger host, and OAuth refresh sends the stored refresh token to the configured issuer.

- **Rationale:** The configurable API and OAuth destinations can receive existing Hostinger credentials without a source-level host restriction, creating a conditional credential exposure risk. The defaults are Hostinger services, and the API transfer requires an invoked operation, so the evidence supports a warning rather than a block.

- **Network endpoints:** https://developers.hostinger.com, https://auth.hostinger.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 86.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** API\_BASE\_URL sets the API destination, defaulting to developers.hostinger.com; API request URLs are built from that value., An MCP execute request invokes an API operation that attaches the bearer token obtained by the runtime., Both inspected upload credential requests also attach the bearer token and send requests through the configured API destination., OAUTH\_ISSUER can change the OAuth destination, and refresh requests send the stored refresh token to that issuer., The manifest has no install hook; its build script runs the TypeScript compiler when invoked.

- **Evidence against:** The default API and OAuth destinations are Hostinger services., The API credential transfer occurs when the server handles an execute request, rather than automatically during installation.
