## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 13 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 0.2.454
- **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The inspected executable source supports conditional forwarding of saved third-party access tokens, enabled by default during worker setup. The recipient and consent boundary remain unresolved, and the manifest contains no install hook, so downgrade to a warning.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-19T21:27:58.364Z

- **Total time:** 53236 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:** When the Reason worker runs with local logins enabled, it collects existing third-party access tokens and submits them through the local-subscription API. The package defaults this setting to enabled, while the CLI describes the token transfer.

- **Trigger:** A user connects or runs a Reason worker with local logins enabled; the default is on unless the setting is explicitly provided.

- **Impact:** Saved third-party access tokens may be disclosed to the configured Reason service, creating credential exposure risk.

- **Evidence paths:** .lpm-inspection-0hIhkD/0-ccf4e3c76af7.txt

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-19T21:28:51.600Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The worker reads saved credentials and environment values, reduces collected records to provider, access token, and expiry, then calls the local-subscription API. The configured recipient and effective recipient-specific consent are not established by the inspected excerpts.

- **Rationale:** The inspected executable source supports conditional forwarding of saved third-party access tokens, enabled by default during worker setup. The recipient and consent boundary remain unresolved, and the manifest contains no install hook, so downgrade to a warning.

- **Files touched:** bin/reason.exe, Claude, Codex, Grok, OpenCode, and local-agent credential files

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 84.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The CLI gathers existing Claude, Codex, Grok, OpenCode, and local agent credentials; the forwarding helper sends access-token data to its local-subscription API., The worker calls that helper automatically when local logins are enabled; setup defaults that setting to on unless explicitly set., The CLI help discloses that Reason receives current access tokens, but this does not establish affirmative consent to transfer saved third-party credentials.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts, so this behavior is not triggered by package installation., The executable analysis is bounded and does not establish the specific API host or full native-code behavior; the configured service recipient remains unresolved.

## Affected versions and remediation
