Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 14 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:** 7.140.0 - **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. The package has no npm lifecycle hooks, and the flagged dynamic evaluation is in embedded WebAssembly support. The inspected automatic update path verifies official package metadata, integrity, and a signed release manifest; the supplied agent-configuration locations are comments rather than configuration mutations. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-16T04:16:53.261Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-16T04:18:58.290Z - **Download time:** 765 ms - **Static scan time:** 22548 ms - **AI review time:** 101716 ms - **Total time:** 125029 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:** No attack surface was confirmed. The inspected runtime updater uses the official package registry and validates signed release metadata and package integrity before installing updates. - **Trigger:** The CLI runs when invoked; an installed runtime may also start its periodic update check. - **Impact:** No malicious effect was established from the inspected source. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T04:18:58.290Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The updater fetches official release metadata and verifies the selected package against a signed manifest and integrity values. - **Rationale:** The package has no npm lifecycle hooks, and the flagged dynamic evaluation is in embedded WebAssembly support. The inspected automatic update path verifies official package metadata, integrity, and a signed release manifest; the supplied agent-configuration locations are comments rather than configuration mutations. - **Network endpoints:** registry.npmjs.org ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 92.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts and exposes the CLI through dist/bin.js., The eight supplied agent-configuration locations resolve to comments about scanner exclusions and shell snapshots, not configuration writes., The CLI installer validates selected hosts and components and reports authorization requirements., The updater targets the official package registry and checks release metadata, package integrity, and a signed release manifest before installing an update., The eval match is in WebAssembly em-asm support, where generated functions are built from module-provided function bodies; no remote-response execution path was confirmed. - **Evidence against:** An installed CLI can start a periodic automatic update check and replace its runtime., The bundle contains eval and network code, although the inspected contexts do not establish an attack. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @mnemonik/cli@7.140.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @mnemonik/cli@7.140.0 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.
