# @reason-machines/cli-darwin-x64@0.2.465 npm security report

## 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:** 0.2.465
- **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 flagged JavaScript location is part of a sandbox path-protection list, while the native executable is the package’s central artifact. Its bounded analysis exposes credential-reading code but cannot establish its callers, reachability, or recipient, so the remaining behavior requires manual review rather than a malicious verdict.

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

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 is confirmed. The native executable contains an embedded credential-reading code candidate, but its activation and data flow remain unresolved.

- **Trigger:** Unknown; the available analysis does not establish when the embedded helper is called.

- **Impact:** Whether credentials remain within an intended local-login flow or are exposed elsewhere cannot be determined from the inspected evidence.

- **Evidence paths:** bin/reason, .lpm-inspection-thWRbp/0-d1120e5f210a.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-20T05:03:59.358Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The candidate reads provider credentials from environment variables and Codex authentication configuration; no recipient is established.

- **Rationale:** The flagged JavaScript location is part of a sandbox path-protection list, while the native executable is the package’s central artifact. Its bounded analysis exposes credential-reading code but cannot establish its callers, reachability, or recipient, so the remaining behavior requires manual review rather than a malicious verdict.

- **Files touched:** bin/reason, .lpm-inspection-thWRbp/0-d1120e5f210a.txt, bin/runtime/srt/sandbox-runtime.mjs, package.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** The manifest identifies a Darwin x64 CLI native-binary package and declares no lifecycle scripts or executable entrypoint., The flagged runtime location lists \`.mcp.json\` and Claude command and agent directories among paths it protects., Host analysis identifies \`bin/reason\` as a 78 MB Mach-O executable, but says its bounded source windows cannot establish reachability or rule out other behavior., An embedded source candidate reads provider API-key environment variables and Codex \`auth.json\`; its caller and any data recipient are not established by the available analysis.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @reason-machines/cli-darwin-x64@0.2.465.

- Review the evidence and your use of @reason-machines/cli-darwin-x64@0.2.465 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.
