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 entry point and detector prefetch serve the CAPTCHA widget's purpose, and the flagged module bridge is only a generated runtime import. The only identified reporting is sampled runtime telemetry disclosed in the changelog, sent to Prosopo with a build-time opt-out. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-29T20:26:21.984Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-29T20:27:14.266Z - **Download time:** 780 ms - **Static scan time:** 185 ms - **AI review time:** 51317 ms - **Total time:** 52282 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. The package initializes its CAPTCHA widget and includes disclosed, sampled runtime telemetry for qualifying self-hosted builds. - **Trigger:** Importing the browser entry point boots the widget; telemetry is conditional on a self-hosted build with a provider-list override and a successful 0.1% sample. - **Impact:** Normal CAPTCHA operation and limited disclosed usage measurement; no malicious behavior found. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-29T20:27:14.266Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The widget prefetches its detector using the site key and configured CAPTCHA options. The disclosed beacon sends the page hostname, site key, bundle version, and sample rate to Prosopo with cookies and referrer omitted; it can be disabled at build time. - **Rationale:** The entry point and detector prefetch serve the CAPTCHA widget's purpose, and the flagged module bridge is only a generated runtime import. The only identified reporting is sampled runtime telemetry disclosed in the changelog, sent to Prosopo with a build-time opt-out. - **Network endpoints:** beacon.prosopo.io/v1/b.gif ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exports a browser CAPTCHA widget entry point and declares no install lifecycle scripts., Detector prefetch uses the site key and CAPTCHA options, and skips manual-start widgets., The changelog discloses the self-hosted usage beacon, its data, and how to disable it., The beacon is limited to builds with a provider-list override and samples about one render in a thousand; it sends the page hostname, site key, bundle version, and sample rate without cookies or a referrer., The flagged Rolldown runtime bridge only imports node:module and exports an empty module. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.6.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @prosopo/procaptcha-bundle@4.6.1 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## 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/esm/index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package metadata claims a different repository identity while copied source loads a runtime dependency bridge.

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:** 96.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() The package exports a browser CAPTCHA widget entry point and declares no install lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json "main": "dist/esm/index.js", "type": "module", "sideEffects": false, "engines": { "node": "^24" }, "exports": { ".": { "types": "./dist/ ``` ### 9. Low: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Path:** dist/esm/index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Detector prefetch uses the site key and CAPTCHA options, and skips manual-start widgets. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript > { frictionless.prefetchDetector(process.env.PROSOPO_DEFAULT_ENVIRONMENT, common.pickIpMode(flags), siteKey, language, integration); }).catch(() => void 0); }; var PROCAPTCHA_E ``` ### 10. Low: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Path:** CHANGELOG.md - **Public source:** [View source]() The changelog discloses the self-hosted usage beacon, its data, and how to disable it. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```markdown ## 4.6.0 ### Minor Changes - f53d027: A self-hosted widget (one built with `PROSOPO_PROVIDER_LIST`) now sends Prosopo a usage beacon on about one render in a thousand: a single `GET https://beacon.prosopo.io/v1/b.gif` carrying the page hostname, site key, bundle version and sample rate, with no referrer, cookies or visitor data. It lets us count self-hosted installs and the versions they run, so we can tell self-hosters about new relea ``` ### 11.
