## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 7 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked)
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Telemetry
- **Selected version:** 1.8.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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.

The package enables dependency postinstall analytics by default and configures an endpoint; the event includes the installer’s Git email domain. This is install-time telemetry with an identifying organizational detail, so it warrants a warning.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Install-time analytics disclose package and system details plus the Git email domain.

- **Trigger:** Dependency postinstall runs during installation when analytics are enabled and an endpoint is configured.

- **Impact:** The configured analytics service receives install telemetry that includes an organizational identifier without a separate installer prompt.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-a2a51aa2-dc23-4a74-8dc0-5c8442d95ddc/1/npm-linux/index.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-a2a51aa2-dc23-4a74-8dc0-5c8442d95ddc/1/npm-linux/src/tracker.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-a2a51aa2-dc23-4a74-8dc0-5c8442d95ddc/1/npm-linux/src/collector.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-a2a51aa2-dc23-4a74-8dc0-5c8442d95ddc/1/npm-linux/src/sender.js

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The reova tracker reads the email domain from ~/.gitconfig, adds it to an npm-install event, and POSTs the event to the configured telemetry endpoint.

- **Rationale:** The package enables dependency postinstall analytics by default and configures an endpoint; the event includes the installer’s Git email domain. This is install-time telemetry with an identifying organizational detail, so it warrants a warning.

- **Files touched:** ~/.gitconfig

- **Network endpoints:** https://telemetry.reo.dev/data

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 92.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The manifest enables reova analytics and configures https://telemetry.reo.dev/data., reova's postinstall runs its tracker automatically during installation., The tracker collects an install event and sends it when the package has analytics enabled and an endpoint configured., The event includes the domain parsed from the installer's Git email in ~/.gitconfig., The sender POSTs the collected event to the configured endpoint.

- **Evidence against:** The package has no own install lifecycle script; the automatic behavior comes from its reova dependency., The collector sends the email domain rather than the full email address and excludes environment variables and file paths., The endpoint is explicitly declared in the package manifest, and the tracker supports REOVA\_ANALYTICS=false and DO\_NOT\_TRACK opt-outs.
