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 confirms unrestricted forwarding of a service cookie during caller-invoked downloads, warranting a warning under the credential-forwarding policy. The command-output exfiltration hint is unsupported by the inspected data flow. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-02T12:55:25.893Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-02T12:56:49.968Z - **Download time:** 253 ms - **Static scan time:** 120 ms - **AI review time:** 83701 ms - **Total time:** 84075 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 downloads can expose a Geofabrik cookie to an unrestricted configured destination. No confirmed malicious attack was established. - **Trigger:** A caller runs the PBF download step with OSM\_AUTH set and a PBF URL outside the intended service. - **Impact:** Conditional exposure of a service authorization cookie to another server. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.cjs, dist/index.mjs, dist/config.schema.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-02T12:56:49.968Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The host check logs a warning, then curl sends the obtained cookie to the configured URL. - **Rationale:** Source confirms unrestricted forwarding of a service cookie during caller-invoked downloads, warranting a warning under the credential-forwarding policy. The command-output exfiltration hint is unsupported by the inspected data flow. - **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:** package.json has no automatic install lifecycle hooks., dist/index.cjs uses OSM\_AUTH to obtain service authorization; an unrelated PBF host produces only a warning., Both entrypoints pass the obtained Geofabrik cookie to curl with the configured download URL., The PBF caller uses osm\_data.source.pbf\_url, whose schema accepts any string without a destination allowlist. - **Evidence against:** The behavior requires a caller-invoked download and OSM\_AUTH; no covert default recipient was identified., The child process downloads map data and pipes output to the terminal, rather than exporting command output. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @osm-conflation-engine/cli@3.8.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @osm-conflation-engine/cli@3.8.0 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.
