AI Security Review
scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiDirect inspection shows the postinstall hook verifies an optional local SQLite addon rather than performing remote or persistent actions. The scanner's runtime-install finding belongs to an explicitly invoked PDF helper and does not establish malicious behavior.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
npm postinstall for the compatibility check; explicit render_html.cjs invocation for the renderer fallback
Impact
No credential harvesting, exfiltration, persistence, or AI-agent control-surface mutation confirmed.
Mechanism
Native addon smoke test and user-invoked Playwright setup

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 90.0% confidence as Benign with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- postinstall runs verify-native-install.mjs.
- A bundled PDF helper can install Playwright Chromium only when invoked with required CLI input/output arguments.
Evidence against
- The install script only validates optional better-sqlite3 with an in-memory query; no network, shell, or file-write behavior was found.
- No lifecycle source mutates AI-agent configuration, harvests credentials, or exfiltrates data.
- The flagged child-process usage is a user-invoked PDF-rendering dependency fallback, not install-time behavior.
