Reason CLI native binary for linux-arm64

AI Security Review

scanned 5d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The inspected JavaScript describes an opt-in-able local-login feature that sends provider access tokens through the Reason client, with no unrelated recipient established. The native executable’s incomplete analysis leaves material behavior unresolved, so the package requires manual review rather than a clean or malicious verdict.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

The unresolved native behavior may activate when the bundled CLI executable runs.

Impact

The package’s overall behavior cannot be determined from the available source analysis.

Mechanism

Only bounded embedded-source windows were inspected; they do not establish the native executable’s complete behavior.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Manual Review at 78.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.

AI review observations

The package manifest identifies this as the Linux ARM64 Reason CLI binary.
The CLI can collect local Claude, Codex, and Grok access tokens when local logins are enabled, and its documentation says this setting is on by default and that Reason receives those tokens.
The runtime sends the collected sessions through the Reason client’s local-subscription request.
The 102 MB native executable has only bounded embedded-source analysis; the analysis says it cannot establish loader reachability or rule out other native behavior.

Evidence against

The login handoff is controlled by the localLogins setting, and the documentation describes its purpose and says it sends access tokens rather than refresh tokens.
The inspected session request uses the package’s Reason client; no unrelated credential recipient or confirmed attack was established.
