## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 9 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:** 1.4.8
- **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.

Inspected source aligns with the declared Datadog exporter purpose and uses direct dependencies and Datadog configuration. No install hook, unrelated destination, or concrete attack behavior was found.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-08T20:28:22.880Z

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 attack was identified. The package implements an observability exporter that sends spans through the Datadog tracer.

- **Trigger:** Application code imports and configures the exporter, then emits Mastra spans.

- **Impact:** Configured Mastra tracing data is exported to Datadog; no independent malicious behavior was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T20:28:44.210Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** It initializes dd-trace from supplied or Datadog environment configuration and forwards span details through the tracer's LLM observability API.

- **Rationale:** Inspected source aligns with the declared Datadog exporter purpose and uses direct dependencies and Datadog configuration. No install hook, unrelated destination, or concrete attack behavior was found.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json contains no install lifecycle hook and declares Datadog tracing dependencies., dist/index.js imports dd-trace and Mastra observability modules as direct runtime dependencies., The exporter reads Datadog configuration from caller config or DD\_\* environment variables, including a Datadog site default., Span export uses tracer.llmobs.trace and annotates the resulting Datadog span with Mastra span data.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @mastra/datadog@1.4.8.

- Review the evidence and your use of @mastra/datadog@1.4.8 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. Low: Scripts Present
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package declares npm scripts.

### 2. Medium: Environment Vars
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references environment variables.

### 3. High: Copied Package Dependency Bridge
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 83.0%
- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@mastra/datadog@1.4.8/dist/index.js>)

Package metadata claims a different repository identity while copied source loads a runtime dependency bridge.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
package = @mastra/datadog; repositoryIdentity = mastra; dependency = @mastra/observability
L2: import { omitKeys } from "@mastra/core/utils";
L3: import { BaseExporter, getExternalParentId } from "@mastra/observability";
L4: import tracer from "dd-trace";
```

### 4. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 40.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 5. High: Semantic Analysis Limited
- **Category:** Scanner Coverage
- **Confidence:** 100.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@mastra/datadog@1.4.8/package.json>)

A bounded semantic-analysis stage reached its safety limit; remaining detectors completed, but this package requires AI review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
stage = ast_semantic_analysis; reason = ast_parse_error; limitedFiles = 1
```

### 6. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@mastra/datadog@1.4.8/package.json>)

package.json contains no install lifecycle hook and declares Datadog tracing dependencies.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
"dependencies": {
    "dd-trace": "^5.117.0",
    "@mastra/observability": "1.17.8"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@types/node": "22.20.1",
    "@vitest/coverage-v8": "4.1.10",
    "@vitest/ui": "4.1.10",
    "eslint": "^10.7.0",
    "tsdown": "0.22.9",
```

### 7. Low: Suspicious Dependency Evidence
- **Category:** Dependency
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@mastra/datadog@1.4.8/dist/index.js>)

dist/index.js imports dd-trace and Mastra observability modules as direct runtime dependencies.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
import { SpanType } from "@mastra/core/observability";
import { omitKeys } from "@mastra/core/utils";
import { BaseExporter, getExternalParentId } from "@mastra/observability";
import tracer from "dd-trace";
import { coreFeatures } from "@mastra/core
```

### 8. Low: Ai Review Evidence
- **Category:** Ai Review
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@mastra/datadog@1.4.8/dist/index.js>)

The exporter reads Datadog configuration from caller config or DD\_\* environment variables, including a Datadog site default.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
App ?? process.env.DD_LLMOBS_ML_APP;
		const apiKey = config.apiKey ?? process.env.DD_API_KEY;
		const site = config.site ?? process.env.DD_SITE ?? "datadoghq.com";
		const env = config.env ?? process.env.DD_ENV;
		const envAgentless = process.env.DD_LLMOBS_AGENTLESS_ENABLED?.toLowerCase();
		const agentless = config.agentless ?? (envAgentless === "true" || envAgentless === "1" ? true : false);
		if (!mlApp) {
			this.setDisab
```

### 9. Low: Ai Review Evidence
- **Category:** Ai Review
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@mastra/datadog@1.4.8/dist/index.js>)

Span export uses tracer.llmobs.trace and annotates the resulting Datadog span with Mastra span data.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
tracer.llmobs.trace(traceOptions, (ddSpan) => {
			const annotations = this.buildAnnotations(span);
			if (Object.keys(annotations).length > 0) tracer.llmobs.annotate(ddSpan, annotations);
			if (span.errorInfo) this.setErrorTags(ddSpan, span.errorInfo);
			const exported = tracer.llmobs.exportSpan ? tracer.llmobs.exportSpan(d
