The package changes a foreign AI-agent control surface without user action and supplies new agent instructions. - **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:** 1.3.9 - **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. Installing the package automatically overwrites Claude skill directories in the consuming project. The installed skills can direct an AI agent to enable browser automation. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-11T04:26:56.520Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-11T04:27:42.721Z - **Download time:** 1016 ms - **Static scan time:** 348 ms - **AI review time:** 44836 ms - **Total time:** 46201 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:** Installing the package automatically overwrites Claude skill directories in the consuming project. The installed skills can direct an AI agent to enable browser automation. - **Trigger:** npm installation runs the postinstall lifecycle hook. - **Impact:** The package changes a foreign AI-agent control surface without user action and supplies new agent instructions. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.mjs, agents/claude/evoke-analytics-auditor/SKILL.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-11T04:27:42.721Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic replacement of consumer AI-agent skills. - **Attack narrative:** On installation, the postinstall hook derives the consuming project root, deletes existing same-named directories beneath .claude/skills, and copies bundled skills there. This silently changes the consumer's Claude agent behavior. One copied skill instructs the agent to load browser automation tools, expanding the resulting control surface. - **Rationale:** This is an unconsented postinstall mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface. The lifecycle hook overwrites consumer skill directories, meeting the blocking policy even without observed data exfiltration. - **Files touched:** package.json, postinstall.mjs, .claude/skills, agents/claude/evoke-analytics-auditor/SKILL.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The manifest runs postinstall automatically., The install hook removes and replaces skill directories under the consuming project's .claude/skills control surface., A bundled injected skill directs an AI agent to load browser automation tools. - **Evidence against:** No package source evidence shows credential harvesting, external network requests, or a self-dependency chain. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @inizioevoke/veeva-astroclm-core@1.3.9. - Avoid installing @inizioevoke/veeva-astroclm-core@1.3.9. 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.
