## 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:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked)
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Telemetry
- **Selected version:** 0.4.15
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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’s normal CLI behavior is supported by the source, and the flagged credential flows are for Cloudflare or the HS-X control plane. However, successful unlinked deploys automatically report project-specific details and a worker URL to HS-X without a visible opt-out, which is undisclosed runtime telemetry.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-31T15:53:11.839Z

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:** Undisclosed runtime telemetry reports deployment details to the HS-X control plane.

- **Trigger:** Automatically after a successful, non-dry-run Cloudflare deploy in unlinked mode.

- **Impact:** The control plane receives project-specific deployment metadata and the worker hostname; no credential exfiltration to an unrelated host was identified.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/commands/deploy.js, dist/config.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T15:54:20.422Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** POSTs a deploy event authenticated with the machine secret, including project/deploy identifiers, environment, and worker URL.

- **Rationale:** The package’s normal CLI behavior is supported by the source, and the flagged credential flows are for Cloudflare or the HS-X control plane. However, successful unlinked deploys automatically report project-specific details and a worker URL to HS-X without a visible opt-out, which is undisclosed runtime telemetry.

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.hs-x.dev/v1/machines/{machineId}/events

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 82.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes the package as an \`hs-x\` CLI and declares no install lifecycle hooks., After a successful, non-dry-run Cloudflare deploy in unlinked mode, the command emits a deploy event., That event sends project and deploy IDs, environment, and the deployed worker URL to the control plane using a machine secret., The default event destination is the HS-X control plane at \`https://api.hs-x.dev\`., The event is tied to a user-invoked deploy; the code requires explicit consent for durable deploy changes.

- **Evidence against:** Cloudflare credentials used to resolve a worker subdomain are sent to Cloudflare’s API endpoint., The event goes to the package’s own control plane and reports deploy status; no unrelated collector or credential theft was identified., The manifest contains no install hook, so the event does not run during installation.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @hs-x/cli@0.4.15.

- Review the evidence and your use of @hs-x/cli@0.4.15 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
