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. Source establishes unrestricted forwarding of a service authentication cookie during a caller-activated download. This warrants a warning for credential exposure, while the inspected command behavior and absent install hooks do not support blocking as malware. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-02T12:54:52.265Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-02T12:56:05.481Z - **Download time:** 759 ms - **Static scan time:** 131 ms - **AI review time:** 72326 ms - **Total time:** 73216 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Authenticated PBF downloading can expose a Geofabrik cookie to an unrestricted configured destination. No confirmed covert attack was established. - **Trigger:** Call run with a PBF source and OSM\_AUTH available, with downloading enabled. - **Impact:** An unrelated configured download server could receive the authentication cookie. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.cjs, dist/index.mjs, dist/config.schema.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-02T12:56:05.481Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Authentication returns a cookie alongside the configured PBF URL; curl sends the cookie explicitly without enforcing its intended destination. - **Rationale:** Source establishes unrestricted forwarding of a service authentication cookie during a caller-activated download. This warrants a warning for credential exposure, while the inspected command behavior and absent install hooks do not support blocking as malware. - **Network endpoints:** https://osm-internal.download.geofabrik.de, https://www.openstreetmap.org ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest has no automatic install lifecycle hooks., When OSM\_AUTH is present, authentication obtains a Geofabrik cookie; a non-Geofabrik PBF URL only produces a warning., The authentication helper returns the configured URL with the obtained cookie, and curl sends that cookie as an explicit header., The exported run operation activates PBF downloading through the configured source; downloading is included in the default steps., The configuration schema accepts the PBF URL as a string without a destination allowlist., The ES module entrypoint contains the same cookie-forwarding download behavior. - **Evidence against:** Curl output is piped to the console, not uploaded as command-output exfiltration., Authentication and map downloads serve the package's mapping workflow; no covert recipient or malware intent was established. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @osm-conflation-engine/cli@3.7.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @osm-conflation-engine/cli@3.7.0 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
