## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 11 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:** 4.4.3
- **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 suspicious signals are consistent with a CAPTCHA client bundle: browser initialization, configured environment values, and a named provider prefetch. Direct inspection found no install hook or concrete malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-08T19:36:50.827Z

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. This is a browser CAPTCHA bundle that initializes a widget API and conditionally prefetches its provider detector.

- **Trigger:** Importing the browser bundle or rendering a CAPTCHA widget.

- **Impact:** No package-originated file mutation, command execution, or unconsented data exfiltration was found.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-08T19:37:47.101Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Browser-side CAPTCHA widget initialization and provider-detector prefetch.

- **Rationale:** The suspicious signals are consistent with a CAPTCHA client bundle: browser initialization, configured environment values, and a named provider prefetch. Direct inspection found no install hook or concrete malicious behavior.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes browser entrypoints and contains only build, serve, and test scripts, with no install lifecycle hook., The built entrypoint conditionally invokes a named Prosopo CAPTCHA dependency to prefetch a detector using a site key., On browser import, the code publishes a CAPTCHA widget API and dispatches a ready event.

- **Evidence against:** No source evidence of child-process execution, shell commands, eval, filesystem access, credential harvesting, or exfiltration., The environment-variable reads configure CAPTCHA settings; this package does not send values to an endpoint itself., No reviewer-directed text, self-dependency, persistence, or project mutation was found.

## 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@4.4.3/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
L5: import { WidgetThemeResolver } from "./util/widgetThemeResolver.js";
L6: import { getWindowCallback } from "@prosopo/procaptcha-common";
L7: import { PROCAPTCHA_START_EVENT, StartModeEnum } from "@prosopo/types";
```

### 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:** 94.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.4.3/package.json>)

The manifest exposes browser entrypoints and contains only build, serve, and test scripts, with no install lifecycle hook.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
"exports": {
		".": {
			"types": "./dist/index.d.ts",
			"import": "./dist/index.js",
			"require": "./dist/cjs/index.cjs"
		},
```

### 9. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.4.3/package.json>)

The manifest exposes browser entrypoints and contains only build, serve, and test scripts, with no install lifecycle hook.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
"scripts": {
		"clean": "del-cli --verbose dist tsconfig.tsbuildinfo",
		"build": "npm run build:cross-env -- --mode ${NODE_ENV:-development}",
		"build:cross-env": "vite build --config vite.esm.config.ts",
		"build:tsc": "tsc --build --verbose",

```

### 10. Low: Suspicious Dependency Evidence
- **Category:** Dependency
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.4.3/dist/index.js>)

The built entrypoint conditionally invokes a named Prosopo CAPTCHA dependency to prefetch a detector using a site key.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
var startDetectorPrefetch = (siteKey, flags) => {
	if (!siteKey) return;
	if (flags.startMode === StartModeEnum.manual) 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);
```

### 11. Low: Ai Review Evidence
- **Category:** Ai Review
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** src/index.ts
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.4.3/src/index.ts>)

On browser import, the code publishes a CAPTCHA widget API and dispatches a ready event.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```typescript
// set the procaptcha attribute on the window
window.procaptcha = { ready, render, reset, remove, execute, start };

// Dispatch a custom event to notify that window.procaptcha is ready
const procaptchaReadyEvent = new CustomEvent(PROCAPTCHA_READY_EVENT, {
	detail: {
		timestamp: Date.now(),
	},
	bubbles: true,
	cancelable: false,
});
document.dispatchEvent(procaptchaReadyEvent);

boot();
```
