## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 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:** 4.5.4
- **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 static hints do not establish an attack: the manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the entrypoint’s observed dynamic imports support the package’s captcha widget functionality. The flagged runtime shim only imports node:module and exports an empty module.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-09T16:42:53.922Z

- **Total time:** 35030 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 was identified in the inspected entrypoint or manifest. The entrypoint performs site-key-gated detector prefetch for the captcha widget.

- **Trigger:** Loading the browser entrypoint and finding a widget with a site key, unless start mode is manual.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T16:43:28.952Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Dynamically imports the declared Prosopo detector and common modules, then calls the detector prefetch function.

- **Rationale:** The suspicious static hints do not establish an attack: the manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the entrypoint’s observed dynamic imports support the package’s captcha widget functionality. The flagged runtime shim only imports node:module and exports an empty module.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json points to dist/index.js and lists build, typecheck, and test scripts without an install lifecycle hook., The declared runtime dependencies are Prosopo captcha components and related utilities., dist/index.js prefetches Prosopo detector modules only when a site key is present and start mode is not manual., The flagged runtime shim only imports node:module and exports an empty module.

## 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@4.5.4/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.

```javascript
return;
	if (flags.startMode === StartModeEnum.manual) return;
	Promise.all([import("@prosopo/procaptcha-frictionless"), import("@prosopo/procaptcha-common")]).then(([frictionless, common]) => {
