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. This is a conditional credential-exposure risk because the CLI sends a locally available GitHub token to a Hub endpoint that is not bound to GitHub and has no visible recipient-specific confirmation. The Hub-login flow and session cache provide product context, but do not resolve the token’s exposure to the default or overridden destination. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-15T23:41:09.536Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-15T23:42:51.090Z - **Download time:** 1781 ms - **Static scan time:** 5588 ms - **AI review time:** 94185 ms - **Total time:** 101554 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:** The CLI can disclose a locally available GitHub token while exchanging it for an MMI Hub session. This is a conditional credential-exposure risk; the source does not establish malicious use of the token. - **Trigger:** A user invokes \`whoami\` or a Hub-backed CLI feature when no valid session is cached. - **Impact:** The receiving endpoint gets the GitHub token, which may grant access beyond the Hub session; the source shows no recipient-specific confirmation or destination allowlist. - **Evidence paths:** cli/dist/main.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T23:42:51.090Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI obtains a GitHub token and posts it as a Bearer credential to the Hub session endpoint, using a publisher-selected default URL or an MMI\_HUB\_URL override. - **Rationale:** This is a conditional credential-exposure risk because the CLI sends a locally available GitHub token to a Hub endpoint that is not bound to GitHub and has no visible recipient-specific confirmation. The Hub-login flow and session cache provide product context, but do not resolve the token’s exposure to the default or overridden destination. - **Files touched:** cli/dist/main.cjs - **Network endpoints:** https://tqxxwzftic.execute-api.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** package.json contains no lifecycle scripts; it lists plugin and CLI files for distribution., The flagged .codex path is used to classify agent-config paths, and only untracked paths are exempted from a cleanliness check; this code does not edit agent settings., The CLI can read GitHub credentials from environment variables or \`gh auth token\`., The Hub URL defaults to a package-selected endpoint and accepts an MMI\_HUB\_URL override without a visible destination allowlist., On a cache miss, the CLI sends the GitHub token as a Bearer credential to the Hub session endpoint., The \`whoami\` command and Hub-backed request wrapper can reach this exchange; returned sessions are cached against the Hub URL and token fingerprint. - **Evidence against:** The exchange is structured as a Hub session login, and a valid cached session can avoid another token transfer., The package has no npm install hook, and the flagged agent-config code does not mutate agent settings. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @mutmutco/codex-plugin@4.5.156. - Review the evidence and your use of @mutmutco/codex-plugin@4.5.156 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.
