Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 14 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed. - **Verdict:** Clean - **Product-default install policy:** Allow - **Firewall policy:** No policy match - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** None published - **Selected version:** 0.2.81 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The scanner’s execution/exfiltration signals map to documented, explicitly invoked Azure-management, telemetry, and companion-install features. No install-time execution or concrete unconsented malicious chain was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-09T19:29:04.327Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-09T19:30:05.041Z - **Download time:** 762 ms - **Static scan time:** 7678 ms - **AI review time:** 52273 ms - **Total time:** 60714 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:** No confirmed malicious attack surface. Sensitive network, filesystem, and persistence actions are documented explicit CLI operations for the m8t platform. - **Trigger:** User runs commands such as \`m8t telemetry enroll\` or \`m8t companion install\`. - **Impact:** Can enroll telemetry or install a per-user companion only after the corresponding user command. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, README.md, dist/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-09T19:30:05.041Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** User-invoked Azure platform management, telemetry enrollment, and companion installation. - **Rationale:** The scanner’s execution/exfiltration signals map to documented, explicitly invoked Azure-management, telemetry, and companion-install features. No install-time execution or concrete unconsented malicious chain was found. - **Files touched:** ~/.m8t, ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.m8t.companion.plist, HKCU\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run - **Network endpoints:** https://m8t-admin.wonderfuldesert-721e332f.eastus2.azurecontainerapps.io, https://github.com/m8t-labs/m8t-releases/releases ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** \`dist/cli.js\` telemetry enroll posts an Azure access token to the m8t ingest endpoint, but only under \`m8t telemetry enroll\`., \`dist/cli.js\` companion install downloads a release asset and registers a per-user login item, only under documented companion commands. - **Evidence against:** \`package.json\` has no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook; \`prepublishOnly\` only builds before publishing., \`dist/cli.js\` registers side-effecting operations as explicit CLI subcommands., \`README.md\` documents companion installation, login registration, and release-digest verification., Companion downloads are size-limited and SHA-256 checked before unpacking., No unconsented import-time execution, credential harvesting, or foreign AI-agent configuration mutation found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @m8t-stack/cli@0.2.81. - Review the evidence and your use of @m8t-stack/cli@0.2.81 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
