Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package has no install hooks, and its runtime behavior matches its stated Next.js verification purpose. Its core documents the counter data and destination, and sends no counters without a configured site key. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-29T16:41:58.184Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-29T16:42:45.339Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 60 ms - **AI review time:** 46584 ms - **Total time:** 47155 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:** No attack identified. The package provides a Next.js verification and policy adapter. - **Trigger:** Creating a Posterna instance or handling a request through the middleware. - **Impact:** No malicious impact identified; counter data is documented as aggregated and excludes addresses, URLs, and header values. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-29T16:42:45.339Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Reads the configured policy file, refreshes signed directory data from its service, and sends aggregated counters there only when a site key is configured. - **Rationale:** The package has no install hooks, and its runtime behavior matches its stated Next.js verification purpose. Its core documents the counter data and destination, and sends no counters without a configured site key. - **Files touched:** agents.yaml (read by default when creating an instance) - **Network endpoints:** https://posterna.com/v1/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hooks; its scripts are build and typecheck., The adapter reads the policy file when configured and sets up counters as part of creating a Posterna instance., The core documents that counters send aggregated request counts only with POSTERNA\_SITE\_KEY; without a key they send nothing, and do not retain or send addresses, URLs, or header values., The core’s default service URL is https://posterna.com/v1/, used for directory refresh and counters ingestion. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @posterna/next@0.1.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @posterna/next@0.1.1 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.

Low: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Path:** dist/index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The adapter reads the policy file when configured and sets up counters as part of creating a Posterna instance.

Public source snippet (untrusted): ```markdown ## Counters `createCounters({ sdk, source: engine })` aggregates requests by hour, verdict, reason code, operator, agent, purpose, path group, action and enforced. With a site key (`POSTERNA_SITE_KEY`) it sends them to the Posterna cloud every 60 seconds and on exit, and applies the cloud's monitor override to the engine. Without one it sends nothing. Recording never blocks or slows a request, and no address, URL or header value is ever kept or sent. The adapters set this up for you. Signature ``` ### 6.
