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. A permitted external web origin can read the loopback bridge token and use it to invoke workspace shell commands. This is a remote-code-execution exposure when a user visits content from an allowed origin. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-01T02:38:51.866Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-01T02:40:08.909Z - **Download time:** 1520 ms - **Static scan time:** 7771 ms - **AI review time:** 67751 ms - **Total time:** 77043 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:** A permitted external web origin can read the loopback bridge token and use it to invoke workspace shell commands. This is a remote-code-execution exposure when a user visits content from an allowed origin. - **Trigger:** A user runs the bridge and loads a page from an allowed external origin. - **Impact:** Commands can run in the user's configured workspace or opened project. - **Evidence paths:** server.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T02:40:08.909Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Cross-origin token disclosure followed by token-authorized shell execution. - **Rationale:** No malicious install hook or covert payload was found, but the source creates a concrete cross-origin path to workspace command execution. This is a critical vulnerability rather than proof of malicious intent. - **Network endpoints:** https://mindexec.pages.dev, https://mindexecution.pages.dev ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The local server permits cross-origin access from external mindexec.pages.dev origins., Its unauthenticated status endpoint returns the bridge token., That token authorizes shell routes, which run commands through Bash or cmd.exe in the workspace. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The HTTP bridge itself listens only on 127.0.0.1., Shell working directories are restricted to the workspace or opened project root. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @mindexec/cli@0.2.516. - Review the evidence and your use of @mindexec/cli@0.2.516 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.
