⚠ Under review

Jait AI gateway — local-first AI coding agent with terminal, filesystem, and browser control

AI Security Review

scanned 14d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Inspected sources show an npm postinstall runtime installer, ordinary API client behavior, and session-scoped pi MCP setup, without confirming an attack. Required clean coverage cannot be completed within the citation limit, and a required binary file cannot provide a source citation, so the unresolved package-wide review requires manual review.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

A caller invokes the web search tool with an OpenAI key and a configured base URL.

Impact

The key is used for the configured API request; malicious exposure was not established.

Mechanism

The tool appends a responses path, validates the URL, and sends the key in a bearer authorization header.

AI rationale

Evidence

dist/tools/browser-tools.jsdist/security/ssrf-guard.js

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Manual Review at 71.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.

AI review observations

The manifest has a postinstall hook that runs a local runtime installer.
The web search tool reads configured API keys and an optional OpenAI base URL, then sends the key to that endpoint; the inspected code does not establish a malicious recipient or intent.
Pi MCP configuration is written per session, and the ACP provider invokes provisioning when starting pi-based sessions.
Required source coverage remains unresolved: the clean decision requires more citations than the schema allows, and one required path is binary.

Evidence against

The inspected pi integration writes session-scoped configuration rather than changing global or project agent configuration.
