Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 23 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution - **Selected version:** 0.9.9 - **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 package is not malicious by automatic lifecycle behavior, but its update command exposes a concrete shell-injection route. This warrants a warning until the command is changed to run without a shell and validates versions. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-31T07:55:37.707Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-31T07:58:36.373Z - **Download time:** 1277 ms - **Static scan time:** 10794 ms - **AI review time:** 166594 ms - **Total time:** 178666 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:** An explicit update command is vulnerable to shell injection through its version option. No automatic install-time attack surface was found. - **Trigger:** A user runs markus update --version with an attacker-controlled value. - **Impact:** An attacker who controls that argument can execute commands as the local user. - **Evidence paths:** dist/commands/update.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-31T07:58:36.373Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Shell-enabled npm invocation with unsanitized version input. - **Rationale:** The package is not malicious by automatic lifecycle behavior, but its update command exposes a concrete shell-injection route. This warrants a warning until the command is changed to run without a shell and validates versions. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The explicit update command builds an npm package string from the user-supplied version and runs it with shell enabled, allowing shell metacharacter injection. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The start command and browser helper are invoked only when the user runs the CLI., The bundled PDF and deliverable UI files implement document preview and sharing functionality; no hidden install-time path was found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @markus-global/cli@0.9.9. - Review the evidence and your use of @markus-global/cli@0.9.9 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.
