No automatic npm lifecycle trigger was found. - **Trigger:** The user runs m8t telemetry enroll. - **Impact:** The external service receives a bearer credential that may authorize Azure management API access. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-29T10:42:09.986Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Azure access-token collection and remote transmission. - **Rationale:** The shipped CLI exfiltrates an Azure bearer credential to a fixed external host when its telemetry command is run. The lack of an automatic lifecycle hook limits exposure but does not remove the concrete credential-transfer behavior. Product guard normalized a non-low false-positive publish\_block request to warn-only suspicious. - **Network endpoints:** https://m8t-admin.wonderfuldesert-721e332f.eastus2.azurecontainerapps.io/api/ingest/enroll ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** The telemetry enrollment command obtains an Azure management access token., It sends that token as an Entra JWT proof to a fixed external m8t ingest host., The command is registered in the shipped CLI and can be invoked by the user. - **Evidence against:** The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook., The credential transfer requires an explicit telemetry enroll command. ## Public findings ### 1.
