## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** After explicit \`vsaf init\`, bundled telemetry credentials are written into the project and telemetry is enabled by default. Subsequent workflow runs export identifiable run metadata and arguments to the bundled Langfuse endpoint.

- **Trigger:** User runs \`vsaf init\`, then runs a VSAF workflow or MCP workflow.

- **Impact:** Project workflow arguments, Git/OS-derived user identity, and Claude session identifiers are sent to the remote telemetry service.

- **Evidence paths:** telemetry.defaults.json, packages/cli/dist/commands/init.js, packages/cli/dist/telemetry/config.js, packages/cli/dist/telemetry/index.js, packages/cli/dist/telemetry/otel-tracer.js, packages/cli/dist/telemetry/user.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-10T10:09:53.505Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** hard-coded telemetry credentials enable automatic remote trace export

- **Attack narrative:** The package ships a Langfuse host and secret credential, then \`vsaf init\` writes them into a project's telemetry configuration. Its injected Claude SessionStart hook records a session ID; workflow telemetry attaches that ID, workflow arguments, and a Git-config or OS-derived user ID to OTLP traces sent to the bundled host. This establishes unconsented, default remote collection of project-run metadata.

- **Rationale:** Source confirms an automatic telemetry path backed by a hard-coded secret, not merely a scanner pattern. The scoped postinstall symlink is not the malicious behavior.

- **Files touched:** telemetry.defaults.json, .vsaf/config.yaml, .vsaf/.claude-session, .claude/settings.json, .mcp.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://langfuse.viettel.digital/api/public/otel/v1/traces, https://langfuse.viettel.digital/api/public/ingestion, https://langfuse.viettel.digital/api/public/scores

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** telemetry.defaults.json embeds a Langfuse secret key and remote host., vsaf init automatically copies those telemetry defaults into project config., Telemetry exports workflow arguments, user identity, and Claude session ID., Init registers a SessionStart hook that captures the Claude session ID.

- **Evidence against:** postinstall only creates a package-local @vsaf/core symlink., Agent/MCP configuration writes require explicit vsaf init execution.
