## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 14 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 0.24.10
- **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 source establishes conditional forwarding of an existing sandbox token to a configurable endpoint without a destination allowlist, so this merits a warning. The package has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected evidence does not establish a hidden package-controlled recipient or a concrete attack chain.

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:** The sandbox CLI and its update helper use CALLBACK\_SERVER\_URL as a configurable destination. The helper conditionally sends DL\_PROXY\_TOKEN and contextual identifiers there, with no destination allowlist established by the inspected code.

- **Trigger:** A sandbox wrapper invokes the update helper with CALLBACK\_SERVER\_URL and DL\_PROXY\_TOKEN configured; CLI requests also use the configured callback destination.

- **Impact:** If the configured URL is not trusted, the token and contextual identifiers could be exposed to that destination. No install-time trigger or default hidden recipient was established.

- **Evidence paths:** dl-npm-update.sh, dl.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-07T14:56:19.794Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The helper posts a bearer token and event data to a path on CALLBACK\_SERVER\_URL. The CLI takes that URL from the environment as its service base URL.

- **Rationale:** The source establishes conditional forwarding of an existing sandbox token to a configurable endpoint without a destination allowlist, so this merits a warning. The package has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected evidence does not establish a hidden package-controlled recipient or a concrete attack chain.

- **Files touched:** dl-npm-update.sh, dl.mjs

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 86.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The CLI uses CALLBACK\_SERVER\_URL as its sandbox service destination without a destination allowlist., The shipped update helper runs when its wrapper invokes it and reports only when CALLBACK\_SERVER\_URL and DL\_PROXY\_TOKEN are set., The helper sends DL\_PROXY\_TOKEN as a bearer credential to a path on CALLBACK\_SERVER\_URL and includes project and user context in the report.

- **Evidence against:** package.json defines CLI entrypoints but no install lifecycle hook, so this reporting behavior is not triggered merely by installing the package.
