# @reason-machines/cli-darwin-arm64@0.2.408 npm security report

> **Trust boundary:** Package metadata, advisory text, filenames, URLs, and source snippets in this report come from external packages or feeds. Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document.

## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 0.2.408
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The manifest has no install hooks, and the flagged JavaScript excerpt is sandbox path handling. The required native executable analysis reveals credential-gathering code but does not resolve its activation or destination, so the package needs manual review.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 72.0%

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 confirmed. Credential-gathering code appears in the native executable’s embedded source, but its activation and destination remain unresolved.

- **Trigger:** Unknown; the available embedded source shows a credentials helper but does not establish its callers.

- **Impact:** Potential credential exposure cannot be established from the available source analysis.

- **Evidence paths:** .lpm-inspection-1TwrXK/0-5a4ac421f2a1.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T23:22:16.450Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The helper reads API keys from environment variables and local agent configuration; the inspected window does not show whether or where those values are sent.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install hooks, and the flagged JavaScript excerpt is sandbox path handling. The required native executable analysis reveals credential-gathering code but does not resolve its activation or destination, so the package needs manual review.

- **Files touched:** bin/reason

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 72.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** package.json identifies this as a darwin-arm64 CLI package., The flagged JavaScript contains sandbox path handling for Claude configuration directories; that excerpt does not establish harmful agent configuration changes., The native executable analysis contains code that gathers API keys from environment variables and local agent configuration., The offline analysis is limited to embedded source windows and does not establish whether the credential helper is reachable or where its output goes.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., The inspected source does not establish an unauthorized credential transfer or another concrete attack.
