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. The “REVIEW-SKIP” source comment attempts to suppress review of a stated duplicate-source gap, which the rules classify as malicious reviewer manipulation. The inspected executable code otherwise matches the package’s stated middleware purpose. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-01T06:20:41.810Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-01T06:21:09.456Z - **Download time:** 773 ms - **Static scan time:** 22 ms - **AI review time:** 26850 ms - **Total time:** 27646 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 packaged source comment attempts to suppress review of a stated source-parity gap. - **Trigger:** A reviewer inspects dist/geoIp.js. - **Impact:** Could discourage verification and conceal differences in the duplicate source. - **Evidence paths:** dist/geoIp.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-01T06:21:09.456Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The comment is labeled “REVIEW-SKIP” and asserts that parity review is unnecessary because the other copy is byte-identical. - **Attack narrative:** The package includes a “REVIEW-SKIP” comment that discourages checking parity with another source copy and asserts the code is byte-identical. Under the review rules, this is reviewer manipulation. The executable package behavior otherwise appears to be a Levo request proxy. - **Rationale:** The “REVIEW-SKIP” source comment attempts to suppress review of a stated duplicate-source gap, which the rules classify as malicious reviewer manipulation. The inspected executable code otherwise matches the package’s stated middleware purpose. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** dist/geoIp.js contains a “REVIEW-SKIP” comment stating there is no parity check between duplicate source copies and claiming the packaged code is byte-identical to the other copy. - **Evidence against:** The executable entry point is a Next.js middleware proxy for Levo API and SEO file requests., No install scripts or automatic file writes were found; the GeoIP and parameter modules transform caller-supplied headers and route parameters. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @levo-so/next-middleware@0.3.32. - Avoid installing @levo-so/next-middleware@0.3.32. 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.
