## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 11 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:** 1.7.0
- **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 opts into a dependency's automatic install-time analytics and supplies its endpoint. The telemetry includes the user's git email domain, so this is suspicious rather than ordinary anonymous install metrics.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Install-time telemetry sends package and system metrics plus the user's email domain to telemetry.reo.dev.

- **Trigger:** The reova dependency's postinstall hook runs during package installation.

- **Impact:** The telemetry discloses an organizational identifier and machine and package details without a separate user action.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-ecc72351-09d2-4b7f-a9df-2a22f1be13ec/1/npm-linux/package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-ecc72351-09d2-4b7f-a9df-2a22f1be13ec/1/npm-linux/index.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-ecc72351-09d2-4b7f-a9df-2a22f1be13ec/1/npm-linux/src/collector.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-ecc72351-09d2-4b7f-a9df-2a22f1be13ec/1/npm-linux/src/tracker.js

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The hook discovers this package's enabled reova configuration, reads the email domain from ~/.gitconfig, builds an install event, and posts it to the configured endpoint.

- **Rationale:** The package opts into a dependency's automatic install-time analytics and supplies its endpoint. The telemetry includes the user's git email domain, so this is suspicious rather than ordinary anonymous install metrics.

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

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package enables reova install analytics and configures https://telemetry.reo.dev/data., The reova dependency runs a postinstall hook that starts tracking automatically after a short delay., The collector reads ~/.gitconfig and adds the user's email domain to the telemetry payload., The tracker sends collected data when the package's analytics setting and endpoint are present.

- **Evidence against:** The payload includes ordinary package, platform, runtime, CI, and random event ID fields., The collector sends only the email domain, not the full email address., The reova dependency has a global opt-out switch.
