## 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:** 4.5.2
- **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 manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected entrypoint behavior supports rendering a captcha widget. The static environment-variable and runtime-bridge hints do not establish malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-09T16:42:49.176Z

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 surface was identified in the inspected manifest and entrypoint. The flagged runtime bridge and environment reference are consistent with loading the widget and prefetching its detector.

- **Trigger:** Importing the package entrypoint or rendering a widget with a site key.

- **Impact:** No malicious effect was established from the inspected source.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T16:43:09.891Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The entrypoint loads widget utilities and conditionally prefetches the detector through the package's frictionless dependency.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected entrypoint behavior supports rendering a captcha widget. The static environment-variable and runtime-bridge hints do not establish malicious behavior.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 88.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json exposes the distribution bundle as the package entrypoint and defines build and test scripts, with no install lifecycle hook., dist/index.js imports widget utilities and starts detector prefetch for a supplied site key; the inspected code shows no independent attack behavior.

## 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@4.5.2/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:** 88.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.5.2/package.json>)

package.json exposes the distribution bundle as the package entrypoint and defines build 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"
		},
		"./components": {
			"import": "./dist/components.js",
			"require": "./dist/components.cjs"
		}
```

### 9. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 88.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.5.2/package.json>)

package.json exposes the distribution bundle as the package entrypoint and defines build 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":
```

### 10. Low: Ai Review Evidence

- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.5.2/dist/index.js>)

dist/index.js imports widget utilities and starts detector prefetch for a supplied site key; the inspected code shows no independent attack behavior.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
import "./_virtual/_rolldown/runtime.js";
import { extractParams, getProcaptchaScript } from "./util/config.js";
import { resolveStartMode } from "./util/startMode.js";
import { WidgetFactory } fr
```

### 11. Low: Ai Review Evidence
- **Category:** Ai Review
- **Confidence:** 88.0%
- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.5.2/dist/index.js>)

dist/index.js imports widget utilities and starts detector prefetch for a supplied site key; the inspected code shows no independent attack behavior.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
ather than after them.
*
* Fire-and-forget by design — a failed prefetch is indistinguishable from no
* prefetch, and the detection path falls back to resolving a provider itself.
