## 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:** 4.5.5
- **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 manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected entrypoint behavior is consistent with captcha rendering and detector setup. The scanner's runtime-bridge signal resolves to an empty shim, with no concrete attack behavior established.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-09T16:43:04.128Z

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. The inspected entrypoint performs site-key-gated captcha detector prefetching, and the flagged runtime shim has no behavior beyond an import and empty export.

- **Trigger:** Importing the bundle; detector prefetch requires a site key and non-manual start mode.

- **Impact:** No malicious effect was established in the inspected code.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T16:43:37.890Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The entrypoint loads Prosopo captcha modules and invokes detector prefetch with the configured environment, selected IP mode, and site key.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected entrypoint behavior is consistent with captcha rendering and detector setup. The scanner's runtime-bridge signal resolves to an empty shim, with no concrete attack behavior established.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 93.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json identifies the package and exports dist/index.js as its import entrypoint., The package scripts shown are build and maintenance commands; no install lifecycle hook is declared., dist/index.js prefetches Prosopo frictionless detector code only when a site key exists and start mode is not manual., The flagged runtime shim only imports node:module and exports an empty module.

- **Evidence against:** dist/index.js contains a generated runtime shim import and reads environment configuration for captcha setup.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.5.5.

## 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@4.5.5/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
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: Ai Review Evidence
- **Category:** Ai Review
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.5.5/package.json>)

package.json identifies the package and exports dist/index.js as its import entrypoint.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
"name": "@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle",
	"version": "4.5.5",
	"author": "PROSOPO LIMITED <info@prosopo.io>",
	"license": "Apache-2.0",
	"main": "dist/index.js",
	"type": "module",
	"sideEffects": false,

		"npm": "^11"

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

### 9. Low: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.5.5/package.json>)

The package scripts shown are build and maintenance commands; no install lifecycle hook is declared.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
"scripts": {
		"clean": "del-cli --verbose dist tsconfig.tsbuildinfo",
		"build": "npm run build:cross-env -- --mode ${NODE_ENV:-development}",
		"build:cross-env": "vite build --config vite.esm.config.ts",
		"build:tsc": "tsc --build --verbose",
		"build:cjs": "NODE_ENV=${NODE_ENV:-development}; vite build --config vite.cjs.config.ts --mode $NODE_ENV",
		"typecheck": "tsc --project tsconfig.types.json",
		"bundle": "NODE_ENV=${NODE_ENV:-development}; vite build --config vite.con
```

### 10. Low: Ai Review Evidence
- **Category:** Ai Review
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** dist/index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.5.5/dist/index.js>)

dist/index.js prefetches Prosopo frictionless detector code only when a site key exists and start mode is not manual.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
the entry chunk and delay first paint. Firing the import here starts that
* download in parallel with the widget's own chunks rather 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.
*/
var startDetectorPrefetch = (siteKey, flags) => {
	if (!siteKey) return;
	if (flags.startMode === StartModeEnum.manual) return;
	Promise.all([import("@prosop
```

### 11. Low: Ai Review Evidence
- **Category:** Ai Review
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** dist/\_virtual/\_rolldown/runtime.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.5.5/dist/_virtual/_rolldown/runtime.js>)

The flagged runtime shim only imports node:module and exports an empty module.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
import "node:module";
//#endregion
export {};
```
