This is an unconsented install-time remote-code-execution capability, though it is presented as a runtime bootstrap. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-28T09:27:44.867Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-28T09:28:32.540Z - **Download time:** 770 ms - **Static scan time:** 1375 ms - **AI review time:** 45526 ms - **Total time:** 47673 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** npm postinstall can fetch and execute a remote Bun installer automatically. This is an unconsented install-time remote-code-execution capability, though it is presented as a runtime bootstrap. - **Trigger:** npm install when Bun is not present, CI is unset, and VSAF\_SKIP\_BUN\_INSTALL is not 1 - **Impact:** Remote bun.sh content executes with the installing user's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js, scripts/bun-bootstrap.js, packages/cli/dist/index.js, packages/cli/dist/commands/install.js, packages/core/dist/telemetry/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-28T09:28:32.540Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** curl/wget or PowerShell remote installer piped to a shell - **Rationale:** Source confirms an automatic remote shell bootstrap at install time, but no concrete payload theft, persistence, or covert AI-agent takeover. Treat as a dangerous remote execution capability requiring a warning, not confirmed malware. - **Files touched:** scripts/postinstall.js, scripts/bun-bootstrap.js, node\_modules/@vsaf/core, packages/core/dist - **Network endpoints:** https://bun.sh/install, https://bun.sh/install.ps1 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** postinstall calls shell commands downloaded from bun.sh when Bun is absent., The download is piped directly to bash/PowerShell without integrity pinning., Postinstall also replaces node\_modules/@vsaf/core with a package-local symlink/copy. - **Evidence against:** Bun bootstrap is documented, skipped in CI, and has VSAF\_SKIP\_BUN\_INSTALL=1 opt-out., No source evidence of credential harvesting or exfiltration., Telemetry has no embedded collector endpoint and is disabled without user configuration., AI/MCP config writes occur only through explicit vsaf install commands. ## Public findings ### 1.
