## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 9 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 4.2.5
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The inspected manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the compiled entry's dynamic imports are declared same-vendor captcha dependencies. The static signals are consistent with normal browser captcha configuration and prefetching, not malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-01T14:00:45.278Z
- **Finished:** 2026-09-01T14:02:03.356Z
- **Download time:** 502 ms
- **Static scan time:** 271 ms
- **AI review time:** 77304 ms
- **Total time:** 78078 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 confirmed malicious attack surface was established. The package runs as a browser captcha widget when imported or rendered.

- **Trigger:** A consumer imports the bundle or renders a Procaptcha widget.

- **Impact:** No package-originated persistence, host modification, or secret exfiltration was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T14:02:03.356Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Browser-side widget rendering and detector prefetch.

- **Rationale:** The inspected manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the compiled entry's dynamic imports are declared same-vendor captcha dependencies. The static signals are consistent with normal browser captcha configuration and prefetching, not malicious behavior.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes a browser bundle and contains no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The compiled entry only dynamically imports declared Prosopo captcha dependencies to prefetch detector resolution using a site key.

- **Evidence against:** No child-process, filesystem-write, credential-harvesting, or direct network-request primitive was found in the runtime source inspected., The environment references configure captcha settings rather than collecting or transmitting host secrets.

## Public findings

### 1. Low: Scripts Present
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package declares npm scripts.

### 2. Medium: Environment Vars
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references environment variables.

### 3. Low: Filesystem
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 70.0%

Package source references filesystem APIs.

### 4. High: Copied Package Dependency Bridge
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 83.0%
- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.2.5/dist/index.js>)

Package metadata claims a different repository identity while copied source loads a runtime dependency bridge.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
package = @prosopo/procaptcha-bundle; repositoryIdentity = captcha; dependency = @prosopo/procaptcha-common
L4: import { WidgetThemeResolver } from "./util/widgetThemeResolver.js";
L5: import { getWindowCallback } from "@prosopo/procaptcha-common";
L6: import { at } from "@prosopo/util";
```

### 5. Low: High Entropy Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 55.0%

Package source contains high-entropy string patterns.

### 6. Low: Url Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Package source contains URL literals.

### 7. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 8. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.2.5/package.json>)

The manifest exposes a browser bundle and contains no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json

- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.2.5/dist/index.js>)

The compiled entry only dynamically imports declared Prosopo captcha dependencies to prefetch detector resolution using a site key.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
var startDetectorPrefetch = (siteKey, flags) => {
	if (!siteKey) return;
	Promise.all([import("@prosopo/procaptcha-frictionless"), import("@prosopo/procaptcha-common")]).then(([frictionless, common]) => {
		frictionless.prefetchDetector(process.env.PROSOPO_DEFAULT_ENVIRONMENT, common.pickIpMode(flags), siteKey);
	}).catch(() => void 0);
};
```
