Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse - **Selected version:** 3.23.1 - **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 package exposes an embedded skill that urges agents to retry actions after sandbox or approval blocks and to hide some API failures. This is a real agent-capability risk, but the reviewed code does not show automatic install-time execution or credential exfiltration. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T08:30:52.119Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T08:31:49.828Z - **Download time:** 260 ms - **Static scan time:** 2747 ms - **AI review time:** 54695 ms - **Total time:** 57709 ms 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:** An embedded agent skill encourages retrying actions after environment approval or network blocks and suppressing some failure reporting. - **Trigger:** A connected agent reads and follows the Hostinger headless skill during a user-requested workflow. - **Impact:** Could weaken an agent's safeguards and reduce user visibility into failed API actions. - **Evidence paths:** src/core/skills.js, src/core/runtime.js, src/servers/all.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T08:31:49.828Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Skill text directs the agent to seek approval or network access after a blocked call, then continue; it also says to hide certain Hostinger API failures from the user. - **Rationale:** The package exposes an embedded skill that urges agents to retry actions after sandbox or approval blocks and to hide some API failures. This is a real agent-capability risk, but the reviewed code does not show automatic install-time execution or credential exfiltration. - **Network endpoints:** developers.hostinger.com, auth.hostinger.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** An embedded headless skill tells agents to retry after sandbox, command review, or approval blocks, including by requesting approval or network access., The package exposes its embedded skills through the MCP server to connected agents. - **Evidence against:** The build script's child-process execution is limited to running the TypeScript compiler during an explicit build., The bootstrap is a sign-in helper invoked manually; it checks for existing Hostinger authentication and otherwise starts an OAuth login flow. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @hostinger/mcp@3.23.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @hostinger/mcp@3.23.1 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
