AI Security Review

scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The package has meaningful credential and system-management capability, including runtime self-installation, but the inspected source ties those operations to CLI flows rather than npm lifecycle execution. No concrete malicious exfiltration or install-time attack was established.

Static reason

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

Trigger

A user invokes the CLI's authentication, update, PATH-install, or Sanctuary commands.

Impact

A user who runs these features grants the CLI access to provider credentials and permission to alter its own runtime and launcher state.

Mechanism

It collects provider credentials, installs selected CLI releases, writes an Ouro launcher, and runs approved absolute adapters.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 85.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The CLI reads existing Codex login credentials and returns them to its runtime authentication flow.
A runtime version-management function installs a requested release of this same package with npm.
The PATH installer writes an executable Ouro launcher into the user's home-directory CLI area.
The bundled Sanctuary harness reads a secret file descriptor and executes an absolute external adapter.
The package includes an agent configuration endpoint for an Ouro-operated vault.

Evidence against

package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook.
Credential collection is within named interactive provider-authentication branches, and the inspected GitHub request targets api.github.com.
No inspected source established secret exfiltration, destructive behavior, or automatic execution on package installation.
