AI Security Review
scanned 12d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiOn CLI startup, the package automatically forwards a stored or environment-provided license credential to a fixed publisher endpoint when the feed cache is stale or absent. This unconsented credential transfer supports blocking publication.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Running the CLI when a saved or READYSTACK_LICENSE key exists and the feed cache is missing or older than seven days.
Impact
The publisher endpoint receives the license credential, creating a risk of unauthorized use.
Mechanism
The startup feed request includes the key as a query parameter to a fixed getreadystack.com endpoint.
Attack narrative
The package command starts cli.js, which calls the feed helper before handling its arguments. When the feed cache is absent or stale and a saved or environment-provided license key is available, the helper sends that key to the publisher’s fixed rules endpoint. The key is also used for license validation through Polar; the source shows no recipient-specific consent for forwarding it to the publisher endpoint.
AI rationale
On CLI startup, the package automatically forwards a stored or environment-provided license credential to a fixed publisher endpoint when the feed cache is stale or absent. This unconsented credential transfer supports blocking publication.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 98.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- The package exposes cli.js as its command-line entrypoint.
- The CLI requests the license feed before processing command-line arguments.
- License keys are sent to Polar for validation and saved locally after validation.
- When a saved or environment-provided key is present and the feed cache is stale or absent, the feed request sends that key to a fixed publisher endpoint.
