## 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:** 3.17.0
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The flagged process execution in \`build.js\` is a TypeScript build, while OAuth exchanges credentials with Hostinger and stores them locally. The headless bootstrap invokes the package CLI for a browser sign-in flow; I found no install-time collection, unrelated credential transfer, or hidden account action.

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 and API access.

- **Trigger:** The server starts when a user runs its CLI or imports its main entry; OAuth runs when an API call needs authentication, and the headless bootstrap runs when the user follows that setup flow.

- **Impact:** Expected Hostinger account operations use the user’s configured or authorized credentials; no unrelated collection or hidden action was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T08:19:20.062Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** It sends API requests to Hostinger’s API and performs OAuth with Hostinger’s auth service; OAuth credentials are stored locally.

- **Rationale:** The flagged process execution in \`build.js\` is a TypeScript build, while OAuth exchanges credentials with Hostinger and stores them locally. The headless bootstrap invokes the package CLI for a browser sign-in flow; I found no install-time collection, unrelated credential transfer, or hidden account action.

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

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package’s main and CLI entry point starts the Hostinger MCP server., OAuth uses Hostinger’s auth issuer for authorization and token exchange., The OAuth flow stores its credentials in a local Hostinger MCP config path., The headless bootstrap runs the package CLI and presents sign-in through a browser flow., The build script invokes the TypeScript compiler and copies project files.

- **Evidence against:** No install lifecycle scripts are declared., No credential transfer to an unrelated host or unrequested account action was identified., The new skill/bootstrap behavior is available through the package’s documented headless setup flow, not an install hook.
