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 inspected source supports conditional credential exposure through an unrestricted auth-base override, so a warning is appropriate. The scanner’s claim of a fixed unofficial gateway is not supported by the source. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-15T03:51:58.786Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-15T03:53:29.238Z - **Download time:** 780 ms - **Static scan time:** 2758 ms - **AI review time:** 86913 ms - **Total time:** 90452 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:** Auth flows can send bearer credentials to an unrestricted configured auth URL. The default destination is pMate’s auth service. - **Trigger:** The CLI runs with HEBO\_MEMORY\_TOKEN set, or a user completes hosted or access-key login while an auth-base override is configured. - **Impact:** If the configured URL is untrusted, it can receive the credential; the inspected default does not send it to a fixed unrelated recipient. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T03:53:29.238Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The code places the token or access-key secret in an Authorization header and sends it through the configured auth URL. - **Rationale:** The inspected source supports conditional credential exposure through an unrestricted auth-base override, so a warning is appropriate. The scanner’s claim of a fixed unofficial gateway is not supported by the source. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://auth-api-v2.pmate.chat, https://auth.pmate.chat ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes dist/index.js as the CLI executable and main entrypoint; its declared scripts contain no install hook., CLI startup invokes managed-session processing before parsing command arguments., When HEBO\_MEMORY\_TOKEN is set, the code sends it as a bearer token to AUTH\_API\_BASE\_URL, which defaults to auth-api-v2.pmate.chat., The auth URL can be replaced through PMATE\_AUTH\_API\_BASE\_URL or AUTH\_API\_BASE\_URL without a destination check., Interactive login sends its callback token to session exchange through the resolved auth URL., Access-key login sends its secret as a bearer token to the same resolved auth URL. - **Evidence against:** The default auth destination is pMate’s auth service, and the inspected source shows no fixed unrelated credential recipient. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @pmate/cli@0.36.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @pmate/cli@0.36.0 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.
