AI Security Review

scanned 23d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Inspected source establishes request-driven agent configuration mutation, which warrants a capability warning under the supplied policy. No npm install hook, credential theft, or concrete malicious chain supports blocking.

Static reason

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

Trigger

An API installation request specifying the agent, enablement state, and URL.

Impact

Agent configuration changes enable access to the configured MCP endpoint; Codex setup may also change a global experimental client setting.

Mechanism

The server saves the preference and writes an ObjectExplorer MCP entry with its server token into Claude Code or Codex configuration.

AI rationale

Evidence

server/WebServer.mjs.claude.json.codex/config.toml

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The server exposes an API operation that installs or removes an agent integration based on request parameters.
The operation saves an installation preference and passes the requested URL and ObjectExplorer server token to the configuration writer.
Claude Code configuration receives an ObjectExplorer HTTP MCP entry with bearer authentication.
Codex configuration receives an ObjectExplorer MCP entry and may also enable its experimental MCP client setting.
The configuration destinations are user-home Claude Code and Codex files.

Evidence against

package.json declares no npm lifecycle hooks or runtime self-dependency.
The inspected writer targets the ObjectExplorer integration and uses a locally generated or saved server token; it does not establish theft of an existing service credential.
No automatic agent configuration update or concrete malicious execution chain was established.
