@reason-machines/cli-darwin-x64@0.2.512: Manual Review npm

AI Security Review

scanned 1d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The manifest has no lifecycle scripts, and the flagged JavaScript’s child-process reference appears in sandbox support code, which is not proof of malicious behavior. The native CLI remains materially unresolved, so manual review is appropriate.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

Invocation of the shipped bin/reason executable; its active behavior could not be established.

Impact

No impact is confirmed; native executable behavior remains unresolved.

Mechanism

The available offline analysis covers bounded embedded-source windows and does not resolve how the native executable loads or uses them.

AI rationale

The manifest has no lifecycle scripts, and the flagged JavaScript’s child-process reference appears in sandbox support code, which is not proof of malicious behavior. The native CLI remains materially unresolved, so manual review is appropriate.

Evidence

.lpm-inspection-XNcgt0/0-4ec793d7ecac.txtbin/reasonbin/runtime/srt/sandbox-runtime.mjs

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Manual Review at 88.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.

AI review observations

The manifest identifies this as a macOS x64 native CLI package and declares no lifecycle scripts.
The flagged JavaScript bundle includes child-process use in sandbox runtime support; this does not establish an attack.
The offline analysis identifies bin/reason as a Mach-O executable but says its bounded source windows do not establish loader reachability or rule out other behavior.
