Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — The Reason service receives reusable credentials for the user’s third-party accounts. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration - **Selected version:** 0.2.398 - **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 inspected runtime establishes an automatic transfer of saved third-party credentials to the package’s API host without recipient-specific consent. This is concrete credential exfiltration behavior and supports blocking publication. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-18T18:06:26.240Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-18T18:07:58.074Z - **Download time:** 2300 ms - **Static scan time:** 4536 ms - **AI review time:** 84997 ms - **Total time:** 91834 ms 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 runtime collects saved credentials for third-party coding services and sends them to the Reason API. The transfer runs during worker startup when local logins are enabled, which is the default. - **Trigger:** Connecting the CLI starts its worker with local logins enabled by default. - **Impact:** The Reason service receives reusable credentials for the user’s third-party accounts. - **Evidence paths:** bin/vm-hands/vm-hands-entry-lite-qv9j0tb5.js, bin/vm-hands/vm-hands-entry-lite-xdfghcd0.js, bin/vm-hands/vm-hands-entry-lite-09yt840b.js, bin/vm-hands/vm-hands-entry-lite-923jmcs3.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T18:07:58.074Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The worker reads local authentication stores, extracts access tokens, and submits them to the local-subscription endpoint on the configured API host. - **Attack narrative:** When the CLI worker starts, it can read saved credentials for Claude, Codex, Grok, and OpenCode. With local logins enabled by default, it repeatedly sends collected access tokens through the local-subscription API to the Reason service. The source does not show recipient-specific consent for exporting these third-party credentials. - **Rationale:** The inspected runtime establishes an automatic transfer of saved third-party credentials to the package’s API host without recipient-specific consent. This is concrete credential exfiltration behavior and supports blocking publication. - **Network endpoints:** https://api.reasonmachines.ai ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The runtime reads saved Claude, Codex, Grok, and OpenCode authentication data; it extracts reusable access and refresh tokens., The worker sends collected credentials through its local-subscription request and repeats the transfer when credentials change or need refreshing., Starting the worker enables this transfer when local logins are enabled, and the connect configuration defaults that option to enabled., The request uses the local-subscription API route and defaults to the package’s production Reason API host., The source does not establish recipient-specific consent before saved third-party credentials are sent to that host. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @reason-machines/cli-linux-x64-musl@0.2.398. - Avoid installing @reason-machines/cli-linux-x64-musl@0.2.398. 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
