A remote skill can be added to shared agent skill directories and influence compatible AI-agent environments. - **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:** 2.5.3 - **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 installs a remote AI skill globally. The package obtains the installer at the latest version and suppresses interactive confirmation. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-14T03:48:35.668Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-14T03:49:56.023Z - **Download time:** 774 ms - **Static scan time:** 2665 ms - **AI review time:** 76915 ms - **Total time:** 80355 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 installs a remote AI skill globally. The package obtains the installer at the latest version and suppresses interactive confirmation. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall during package installation - **Impact:** A remote skill can be added to shared agent skill directories and influence compatible AI-agent environments. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, lib/skills/npx-skills-add.d.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-14T03:49:56.023Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** automatic non-interactive global AI skill installation through npx - **Attack narrative:** On installation, the postinstall script loads the bundled lifecycle module. That module invokes npx with skills@latest to add lovrabet/rabetbase globally using -y flags. The installer is remote, unpinned, and non-interactive, and the package checks shared agent skill directories under the user home directory. This changes AI-agent control surfaces without an explicit user command. - **Rationale:** This is an unconsented install-time mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface through a remote, latest-version installer. The lifecycle implementation is also deliberately obfuscated. - **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, lib/postinstall.js, lib/skills/builtin-skill.js, lib/skills/npx-skills-add.js, ~/.agents/skills/rabetbase/SKILL.md, ~/.claude/skills/rabetbase/SKILL.md, ~/.agents/.skill-lock.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The package automatically runs a postinstall script., The postinstall loader imports and calls runPostinstall without user interaction., The installed implementation invokes the latest external Skills CLI with non-interactive and global-install flags., It targets a global AI skill named rabetbase and checks shared agent skill locations., Published JavaScript is deliberately obfuscated. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or secret exfiltration was confirmed from the inspected lifecycle path., No fixed network endpoint was present in the inspected lifecycle source. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @lovrabet/rabetbase-cli@2.5.3. - Avoid installing @lovrabet/rabetbase-cli@2.5.3. 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.
