@nocobase/cli-v1@2.2.17

AI Security Review

scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The startup path performs an unexplained destructive change to application plugin storage, so a warning is warranted. The flagged package installation behavior is part of user-invoked end-to-end test commands and does not independently establish an attack.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

Starting the nocobase or nocobase-v1 CLI binary.

Impact

The removed plugin code may disrupt application features that depend on those plugins.

Mechanism

The binary calls environment initialization, which recursively removes the listed plugin directories when present.

AI rationale

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 84.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The CLI binary calls environment initialization during startup.
That initialization recursively deletes four named plugin directories from the resolved plugin storage path.

Evidence against

The flagged package-install commands are part of explicitly invoked end-to-end test commands.
