## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Third-party service access tokens are disclosed to Reason’s API without recipient-specific approval.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 0.2.418
- **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 extracts existing third-party access tokens and sends them to Reason’s authenticated local-subscription endpoint when local-login syncing is enabled. That setting defaults to enabled, so the verified credential transfer supports a malicious block.

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

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 bundled CLI collects existing third-party coding-tool access tokens and sends them to Reason’s local-subscription API. Local login syncing is enabled by default when the setting is unspecified.

- **Trigger:** Starting a Reason worker with default configuration and without an API key or explicit local-login setting.

- **Impact:** Third-party service access tokens are disclosed to Reason’s API without recipient-specific approval.

- **Evidence paths:** .lpm-inspection-KrTR6p/0-2bbc28670c89.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-19T03:50:03.593Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The worker reads local credential stores, extracts access tokens, and submits changed token records to the authenticated local-subscription endpoint.

- **Attack narrative:** When a Reason worker starts with default settings, it searches local keychain and authentication files for coding-tool credentials, then sends changed access-token records to Reason’s local-subscription API. The source says syncing is on by default and that Reason receives each login’s current access token; this exposes third-party credentials without recipient-specific approval.

- **Rationale:** The bundled CLI extracts existing third-party access tokens and sends them to Reason’s authenticated local-subscription endpoint when local-login syncing is enabled. That setting defaults to enabled, so the verified credential transfer supports a malicious block.

- **Files touched:** .credentials.json, .grok/auth.json, .local/share/opencode/auth.json, .pi/agent/auth.json

- **Network endpoints:** /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 bundled CLI source reads existing credentials from local keychain and authentication files for coding tools., A running worker collects changed credentials and submits them through the local-subscription client., The client sends the credential record in the request body to the authenticated local-subscription route., The worker starts this collector when local login syncing is enabled; the configuration defaults that setting to enabled when unspecified., CLI help says local login syncing is on by default and that Reason receives each login’s current access token.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @reason-machines/cli-win32-arm64@0.2.418.

- Avoid installing @reason-machines/cli-win32-arm64@0.2.418. 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.
