## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 16 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Install Hook Abuse
- **Selected version:** 0.1.2
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The automatic global installs and cleanup are a concrete, unwanted install-time capability. The inspected code is otherwise transparent and package-aligned, so the evidence supports a warning rather than a malware block.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 89.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-31T23:57:31.135Z

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 can make global toolchain changes on Windows. It installs missing global tools and removes legacy global shims and a desktop shortcut.

- **Trigger:** npm installation runs the postinstall lifecycle hook.

- **Impact:** The package can alter the user's global npm environment and desktop without an explicit setup command.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-31T23:58:35.056Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Automatic global npm installation and legacy launcher cleanup.

- **Rationale:** The automatic global installs and cleanup are a concrete, unwanted install-time capability. The inspected code is otherwise transparent and package-aligned, so the evidence supports a warning rather than a malware block.

- **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.mjs, dsh-hub.cmd, dsh-hub.ps1, dsh-hub.exe, dsh-hub, DeepSeek Harness.lnk

- **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:** 89.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The automatic postinstall hook runs without a user command., On Windows it installs @deepseek-ai/dsh globally when missing., It also installs pnpm globally when missing., The hook removes global dsh-hub shims and a matching desktop shortcut.

- **Evidence against:** No package self-dependency or downloaded executable payload was found., Network use in the hook is limited to npm registry selection and package installation., The runtime local HTTP API uses loopback host checks and a per-process bearer token.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @marecgents/dsh-hub@0.1.2.

- Review the evidence and your use of @marecgents/dsh-hub@0.1.2 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.
