Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Running the signed-in development command automatically archives the current project and uploads it as a checkpoint. The exclusions do not cover common secret files such as environment files or npm configuration. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-07T12:55:51.328Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-07T12:57:16.386Z - **Download time:** 770 ms - **Static scan time:** 531 ms - **AI review time:** 83756 ms - **Total time:** 85058 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

The exclusions do not cover common secret files such as environment files or npm configuration. - **Trigger:** A signed-in user runs \`kurumera theme dev\` with a store selected. - **Impact:** Project source and unexcluded sensitive files can be sent to the remote service without a separate upload command. - **Evidence paths:** dist/commands/dev.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-07T12:57:16.386Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic working-directory archive upload to a remote checkpoint service. - **Attack narrative:** When a user starts theme development, the CLI starts checkpointing automatically. It creates a gzip archive of the current working directory, excluding only node\_modules, .next, .git, and dist. It then sends the archive with the user’s bearer token to the checkpoint endpoint and repeats on an interval. Because common secret files are not excluded and this upload is not a distinct user-selected operation, the behavior creates a concrete data-exfiltration surface. - **Rationale:** The automatic archive-and-upload path is concrete and can disclose unexcluded project secrets to a remote service. The lack of an install hook limits the trigger, but does not remove the risk once the advertised dev command is used. - **Files touched:** . - **Network endpoints:** themekit.kurumera.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The dev command archives the whole working directory, excluding only four paths, then posts the archive to a remote checkpoint endpoint., Checkpointing starts automatically after a signed-in user invokes the dev command; it is not a separate opt-in command., The archive can include project secret files not among the exclusions, creating a concrete source-data exfiltration path. - **Evidence against:** The package has no npm install lifecycle hook., The normal push command visibly uploads a theme archive as its stated operation., The flagged preview and keychain code use fixed platform commands for opening URLs and credential storage; neither establishes exfiltration. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @kurumera/cli@0.13.0. - Avoid installing @kurumera/cli@0.13.0. 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.
