AI Security Review
scanned 23d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no install lifecycle hook. Source inspection shows the flagged API-key behavior belongs to an AI ticket feature using the configured client; the alleged fixed gateway redirect and persistence are not supported by the inspected source.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Invoking the AI ticket feature; no install-time trigger is present.
Impact
No package-controlled credential redirection or other concrete attack impact was established.
Mechanism
The feature sends supplied notes and images through the configured OpenAI client. Inspected source does not establish a forced third-party recipient or stealth configuration change.
AI rationale
The manifest has no install lifecycle hook. Source inspection shows the flagged API-key behavior belongs to an AI ticket feature using the configured client; the alleged fixed gateway redirect and persistence are not supported by the inspected source.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 94.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest points the CLI and main entrypoint to dist/index.js and has no install lifecycle hook.
- The CLI dispatches commands from parsed arguments.
- The OpenAI config accepts an API key and optional base URL.
- The client uses the configured key and optional configured base URL; no fixed third-party gateway appears in this path.
- The AI ticket feature builds a request from supplied notes and images and sends it through that configured client.
