## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 15 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 3.16.0
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The package is a Hostinger API MCP server. Its flagged shell execution is confined to an explicitly invoked build script, and OAuth credentials are sent to the Hostinger auth service for the expected sign-in and refresh flows.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%

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:** No attack was identified; the package provides a Hostinger API MCP server with OAuth authentication.

- **Trigger:** The server starts when an entry point is invoked; OAuth sign-in or token refresh occurs when requested by the user or when an API call needs authentication.

- **Impact:** Expected Hostinger API access and local OAuth credential storage; no unrelated collection or execution behavior was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T08:18:56.839Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The server exposes Hostinger API tools. OAuth tokens are exchanged with the configured issuer, which defaults to Hostinger’s auth service. The build script invokes the TypeScript compiler when explicitly run.

- **Rationale:** The package is a Hostinger API MCP server. Its flagged shell execution is confined to an explicitly invoked build script, and OAuth credentials are sent to the Hostinger auth service for the expected sign-in and refresh flows.

- **Files touched:** ~/.config/hostinger-mcp/credentials.json

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exposes Hostinger MCP server entry points and has no install lifecycle scripts., The flagged build script runs \`npx tsc\` only when the build script is explicitly invoked., OAuth uses Hostinger’s auth service by default, and refresh tokens are sent there as part of the refresh-token flow., The main entry imports the server runtime, tools, instructions, and skills, then starts the MCP server.
