Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## 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:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked) - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Telemetry - **Selected version:** 0.41.1 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **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 package’s self-update flow sends identifying runtime telemetry, including user and project identifiers and the sandbox host name, without an evident disclosure or opt-out in the inspected source. This warrants a warning, but the reviewed code does not establish credential theft or unrelated data collection. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-04T12:54:33.546Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-04T12:55:18.748Z - **Download time:** 520 ms - **Static scan time:** 1979 ms - **AI review time:** 42702 ms - **Total time:** 45202 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:** Undisclosed runtime telemetry accompanies the CLI self-update flow. - **Trigger:** When the CLI's self-update path runs; the package has no install lifecycle scripts. - **Impact:** The callback service can associate update activity with specific users, projects, prompts, tool calls, and sandboxes. - **Evidence paths:** dl.mjs, dl-npm-update.sh - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T12:55:18.748Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Posts update outcomes and environment-provided project, user, prompt, tool-call, and sandbox identifiers, plus the host name, to CALLBACK\_SERVER\_URL/sandbox-rpc/dl/selfupdate-event with DL\_PROXY\_TOKEN. - **Rationale:** The package’s self-update flow sends identifying runtime telemetry, including user and project identifiers and the sandbox host name, without an evident disclosure or opt-out in the inspected source. This warrants a warning, but the reviewed code does not establish credential theft or unrelated data collection. - **Files touched:** /tmp/dl-npm-checkedat, /tmp/dl-npm-update.lock, /home/user/.local/lib/node\_modules/@pawlogic/dl - **Network endpoints:** CALLBACK\_SERVER\_URL/sandbox-rpc/dl/selfupdate-event ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The package exposes dl.mjs and ilands.mjs as CLI entry points and declares no lifecycle scripts., dl.mjs sends self-update events to CALLBACK\_SERVER\_URL using DL\_PROXY\_TOKEN., Those events include project, user, prompt, tool-call, and sandbox identifiers read from environment variables and the host name., dl-npm-update.sh also posts self-update outcomes to the callback endpoint with the proxy token. - **Evidence against:** The event is limited to self-update status and related context; the inspected code does not show credential or file-content collection., The package has no install lifecycle scripts, and the self-update flow is associated with running the CLI., The updater sends to a configured callback-server URL and uses its corresponding proxy token. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @pawlogic/dl@0.41.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @pawlogic/dl@0.41.1 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.
