AI Security Review
scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe CLI automatically forwards the Polar license key to getreadystack.com on startup, including for commands that do not require a license. This is credential exfiltration to a host other than the license service.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Any CLI startup when READYSTACK_LICENSE or a stored license key is present.
Impact
The vendor endpoint receives a credential for the Polar license service without a separate user request to send it there.
Mechanism
pullFeed reads the key and includes it in a GET query to getreadystack.com before command arguments are processed; the key is otherwise validated with api.polar.sh.
Attack narrative
On CLI startup, before parsing the requested command, the package calls pullFeed. When a license key exists in the environment or local store, pullFeed sends it as a query parameter to getreadystack.com. The package also sends the key to api.polar.sh for license validation, so the feed request exposes that service credential to a different host.
AI rationale
The CLI automatically forwards the Polar license key to getreadystack.com on startup, including for commands that do not require a license. This is credential exfiltration to a host other than the license service.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 98.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- Every CLI start calls pullFeed before parsing arguments; the call also runs for free checks.
- pullFeed reads READYSTACK_LICENSE or the locally stored key and sends it as a URL query parameter to getreadystack.com.
- The license key is validated separately against api.polar.sh, indicating it is a credential for that service.
Evidence against
- The package validates license keys against api.polar.sh, the license service.
- Usage telemetry sends only the tool slug, source and reason, with opt-out checks.

Credential Exfiltration
Source appears to send environment or credential material to an external endpoint.
