Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Source supports a warning for guarded package-owned agent extension setup and automatic prerequisite installation. The inspected lifecycle does not show the unconsented broad agent-control mutation or other concrete attack needed to block publication. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-05T00:57:56.509Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-05T00:59:21.505Z - **Download time:** 1006 ms - **Static scan time:** 900 ms - **AI review time:** 83089 ms - **Total time:** 84996 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:** The package automatically installs agent prerequisites and registers its own extension when its sidecar runs. This creates a guarded extension setup risk; no confirmed malicious attack was established. - **Trigger:** npm installation runs prerequisite setup; launching the sidecar runs profile assembly. - **Impact:** Global tooling and the agent's extension profile can change, but inspected source does not establish covert control hijacking or data theft. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, scripts/assemble-profile.mjs, bin/dsh-web-sidecar.mjs, cordis.patch.yml - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-05T00:59:21.505Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The installer invokes npm globally, while profile assembly adds the package to the web profile and creates its package junction. Extension activation requires a launch environment marker. - **Rationale:** Source supports a warning for guarded package-owned agent extension setup and automatic prerequisite installation. The inspected lifecycle does not show the unconsented broad agent-control mutation or other concrete attack needed to block publication. - **Files touched:** profiles/web/package.json, node\_modules/@marecgents/dsh-hub - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/, https://registry.npmmirror.com, https://mirrors.huaweicloud.com/repository/npm/, https://mirrors.cloud.tencent.com/npm/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** package.json automatically runs the prerequisite installer after installation., scripts/postinstall.mjs can globally install the agent CLI from a selected npm registry., scripts/assemble-profile.mjs writes the agent web profile to register this package's extension., bin/dsh-web-sidecar.mjs invokes profile assembly when the sidecar is launched., cordis.patch.yml gates extension activation on DSH\_HUB\_LAUNCHED. - **Evidence against:** The install hook does not invoke profile assembly or broadly rewrite agent controls., Legacy cleanup targets this package's old command shims and a shortcut with a matching legacy target., No runtime self-dependency, credential exfiltration, or concealed payload execution was identified. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @marecgents/dsh-hub@0.0.2-rc.7. - Review the evidence and your use of @marecgents/dsh-hub@0.0.2-rc.7 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.
