@pawlogic/dl@0.24.4
AI Security Review
scanned 28d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe updater has a concrete credential-forwarding path to an operator-configured callback without a destination allowlist. Because activation and endpoint trust depend on runtime configuration, this warrants a warning rather than a block.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The wrapper invokes the updater with both CALLBACK_SERVER_URL and DL_PROXY_TOKEN set.
Impact
A misconfigured or untrusted callback destination could receive the proxy token and operational data.
Mechanism
The updater sends a bearer-authenticated event containing identifiers and, on npm failure, up to 200 bytes of error output to the callback URL.
AI rationale
The updater has a concrete credential-forwarding path to an operator-configured callback without a destination allowlist. Because activation and endpoint trust depend on runtime configuration, this warrants a warning rather than a block.
Evidence
dl-npm-update.sh
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The updater sends a bearer token to a callback URL supplied through the environment, with no destination allowlist in the request logic.
- The event includes sandbox and user identifiers, and can include the tail of npm error output.
- Both the callback URL and proxy token must be present before reporting runs.
Evidence against
- The manifest has no install lifecycle hooks; the updater is a packaged shell file, not a declared install script.
- The updater report is limited to a self-update event endpoint and bounded error output.
