## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 6.14.17
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The inspected shell call runs webpack as part of the build command, and the CLI’s project setup changes follow CLI execution. The declared utility dependency is imported by runtime code but its source could not be inspected, so the package cannot be cleared.

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:** No attack is confirmed. Review is inconclusive because an unavailable runtime dependency is imported by the package entrypoint.

- **Trigger:** Loading the package runtime entrypoint or invoking its CLI.

- **Impact:** No malicious impact is established from the inspected source.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, lib/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-22T06:54:48.512Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The entrypoint imports a declared utility dependency whose source was unavailable for inspection.

- **Rationale:** The inspected shell call runs webpack as part of the build command, and the CLI’s project setup changes follow CLI execution. The declared utility dependency is imported by runtime code but its source could not be inspected, so the package cannot be cleared.

- **Files touched:** package.json, lib/index.js, bin/fec.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 78.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** The manifest points to \`lib/index.js\` and exposes \`bin/fec.js\` as a command., The manifest declares \`@redhat-cloud-services/frontend-components-config-utilities\`, and \`lib/index.js\` imports it; its source was unavailable in the supplied snapshot., The build script launches webpack in the caller’s working directory., The CLI adds \`ts-patch install\` to the caller project’s postinstall script when the CLI runs.
