@mutmutco/codex-plugin@4.5.147: Clean npm security report (Allow)

AI Security Review

scanned 5d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The manifest has no lifecycle scripts, and the inspected agent-path handling is part of repository cleanliness logic. The identified network behavior is command-time telemetry with limited usage fields and an opt-out, not a demonstrated attack.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

A CLI command reaches its pre-action handler; telemetry can be disabled with MMI_TELEMETRY=off.

Impact

The request discloses basic CLI usage metadata; the inspected behavior does not establish credential transfer or agent configuration mutation.

Mechanism

The telemetry request contains the command, version, CI status, and operating system. The agent configuration paths are only used in repository cleanliness checks.

AI rationale

The manifest has no lifecycle scripts, and the inspected agent-path handling is part of repository cleanliness logic. The identified network behavior is command-time telemetry with limited usage fields and an opt-out, not a demonstrated attack.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 89.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

package.json has no lifecycle hooks; it packages the CLI and plugin files.
The Codex-related paths are classified as agent configuration paths for repository cleanliness checks, not written or installed by this code.
CLI telemetry sends the invoked command, package version, CI status, and operating system to the configured Hub; it can be disabled with MMI_TELEMETRY=off.
Telemetry is called from a CLI pre-action handler, so it runs on command invocation rather than package installation.
