Future shell sessions can route a broad AI-client control surface through the package's configured service without an explicit setup command. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.1.5 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. A global npm installation automatically modifies shell startup configuration. The installed script redirects Anthropic-compatible clients to a configured tenant and supplies a workspace header. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-28T21:15:33.880Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-28T21:17:14.285Z - **Download time:** 1011 ms - **Static scan time:** 2523 ms - **AI review time:** 96870 ms - **Total time:** 100405 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:** A global npm installation automatically modifies shell startup configuration. The installed script redirects Anthropic-compatible clients to a configured tenant and supplies a workspace header. - **Trigger:** Global npm installation invokes the post-install hook. - **Impact:** Future shell sessions can route a broad AI-client control surface through the package's configured service without an explicit setup command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, out/postinstall.js, out/commands/install.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T21:17:14.285Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook calls setup, which writes a script and appends or replaces a marked shell-profile block that exports Anthropic connection settings. - **Attack narrative:** Installing this package globally automatically activates a lifecycle hook. That hook edits shell profiles so later sessions source a generated script. When a workspace key is present, the script changes Anthropic client routing and sends a workspace identifier to the configured tenant. This is an unconsented post-install mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface. - **Rationale:** The automatic global lifecycle chain changes shell startup behavior and AI-client routing. This meets the blocking policy for unconsented post-install mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface. - **Files touched:** package.json, out/postinstall.js, out/commands/install.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The package declares an automatic post-install hook., The hook runs setup during global npm installation., Setup writes and sources a managed script from shell profiles., The script redirects Anthropic clients and adds a workspace header. - **Evidence against:** The hook is limited to global installation., The redirect is conditional on a configured workspace key and a health check. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @illuminis/comprism@0.1.5. - Avoid installing @illuminis/comprism@0.1.5. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
