`r5d-browser start` updates the client automatically. It checks the authenticated environment's selected release once a minute and stages verified packages privately using npm. After the current action finishes, it reconnects a new CLI process to the same
AI Security Review
scanned 26d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe flagged launch behavior starts Chrome, and the dynamic evaluation is a user-facing browser scripting feature. The inspected source did not substantiate the scanner’s remote download-and-execute claim or another malicious behavior.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
A user invokes the browser CLI or a caller uses the browser scripting capability.
Impact
The scripting capability can perform actions available to that browser page, but inspected source did not establish an attack against the consumer.
Mechanism
The launcher starts the resolved Chrome executable; browser scripting evaluates caller-supplied code in the page.
AI rationale
The flagged launch behavior starts Chrome, and the dynamic evaluation is a user-facing browser scripting feature. The inspected source did not substantiate the scanner’s remote download-and-execute claim or another malicious behavior.
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 84.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The package entrypoint is the declared main module in dist/mjs/main.mjs.
- The flagged launcher starts a locally resolved Chrome executable with its launch arguments.
- The flagged dynamic function evaluates supplied code in a browser page and enforces limits on returned artifacts.
Evidence against
- No inspected source showed the launcher downloading and executing remote code.
- The dynamic evaluation is part of an exposed browser scripting capability, not an install-time hook.
- No inspected evidence established credential theft or another concrete attack.
