## 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:** 3.17.4
- **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’s execution paths support building and running a Hostinger API MCP server, and its OAuth flow uses the Hostinger issuer by default. The flagged shell and network behavior is tied to compilation, browser sign-in, or user-requested API operations; no malicious automatic behavior was found.

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 an MCP interface to Hostinger APIs and serves bundled agent skills.

- **Trigger:** The MCP server starts when its entry point is run; API operations and OAuth sign-in occur in response to client requests or an explicit login command.

- **Impact:** No unauthorized collection, credential forwarding to an unrelated host, or unrequested account action was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T08:24:06.502Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** API credentials are used for Hostinger service requests. The build script runs TypeScript compilation, and a separate connection bootstrap uses npx and may launch the Hostinger OAuth browser flow.

- **Rationale:** The package’s execution paths support building and running a Hostinger API MCP server, and its OAuth flow uses the Hostinger issuer by default. The flagged shell and network behavior is tied to compilation, browser sign-in, or user-requested API operations; no malicious automatic behavior was found.

- **Network endpoints:** auth.hostinger.com, developers.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 entry points start the Hostinger MCP server., The build script runs the TypeScript compiler and copies package files into dist., The headless connection bootstrap invokes the Hostinger MCP package through npx when that script is run., OAuth uses auth.hostinger.com by default and sends refresh tokens to the configured issuer’s token endpoint., OAuth credentials are saved to the Hostinger MCP config directory; on non-Windows platforms the file is restricted to owner access., Bundled agent skills are exposed as MCP resources through skills and resource requests.

- **Evidence against:** The package includes child-process and shell execution in its build and OAuth browser-launch code., The connection bootstrap checks for existing Hostinger credentials and can initiate a browser sign-in., The package handles API tokens and OAuth credentials to authenticate requests to Hostinger services., Bundled skills describe account operations and deployment workflows.
