## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Saved service access tokens are disclosed to the Reason backend, where they could be used to access the associated provider accounts.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 0.2.388
- **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: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The bundled CLI automatically forwards saved third-party service access tokens to the publisher's API by default. That verified credential disclosure supports blocking publication.

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:** The CLI sends saved AI-provider access tokens to the Reason API through its local-subscription feature. The transfer is enabled by default without a recipient-specific opt-in.

- **Trigger:** Starting the CLI worker when local logins have not been disabled.

- **Impact:** Saved service access tokens are disclosed to the Reason backend, where they could be used to access the associated provider accounts.

- **Evidence paths:** .lpm-inspection-g5DwPk/0-a851e8425db8.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T09:01:31.742Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The worker reads saved provider credentials and submits them in a request to the local-subscription route on the configured Reason API origin.

- **Attack narrative:** When the CLI worker starts, local logins default to enabled unless an override is present. The worker reads saved provider credentials and sends access tokens to the Reason API's local-subscription route. The inspected source shows no recipient-specific consent gate for this transfer.

- **Rationale:** The bundled CLI automatically forwards saved third-party service access tokens to the publisher's API by default. That verified credential disclosure supports blocking publication.

- **Files touched:** .credentials.json, auth.json

- **Network endpoints:** Configured Reason API origin: /app/local-runtime/local-subscription

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** The native CLI defaults local logins to enabled when no value is saved and no override is supplied., When enabled, worker startup launches a loop that reads local provider credentials and submits them through the local-subscription client method., The credential reader accesses local \`.credentials.json\` and \`auth.json\` files, including OAuth access tokens., The local-subscription request sends the credential object as its body to the \`/local-subscription\` route on the configured Reason API origin.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @reason-machines/cli-darwin-x64@0.2.388.

- Avoid installing @reason-machines/cli-darwin-x64@0.2.388. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
- If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment.
