Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Inspected source does not support the scanner's remote download-and-execute claim: the launcher spawns Chrome, and browser evaluation occurs as a runtime page action. The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected token request targets the selected HTTPS service origin. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 89.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-10T13:12:39.574Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-10T13:13:06.099Z - **Download time:** 758 ms - **Static scan time:** 489 ms - **AI review time:** 25277 ms - **Total time:** 26525 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:** No confirmed attack surface was identified in the inspected source. The package provides browser automation and a personal browser client that sends a token to its selected HTTPS service origin. - **Trigger:** Use of the browser CLI or personal browser client. - **Impact:** These inspected behaviors support the package's browser automation purpose; no package-controlled payload execution or credential exfiltration was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-10T13:13:06.099Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI launches Chrome; browser actions can evaluate caller-provided code in a page. The client sends its bearer token to the selected service origin. - **Rationale:** Inspected source does not support the scanner's remote download-and-execute claim: the launcher spawns Chrome, and browser evaluation occurs as a runtime page action. The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected token request targets the selected HTTPS service origin. - **Files touched:** dist/mjs/browser-runtime.mjs - **Network endpoints:** https://r5d.dev ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 89.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest exposes a browser CLI and lists browser automation dependencies; no install lifecycle hook is present in the inspected manifest., The launcher starts the resolved Chrome executable with constructed launch arguments., The runtime evaluates JavaScript in a browser page and stores browser downloads under its configured downloads directory., The personal browser client defaults to the service origin and sends its bearer token to that origin's API endpoint. - **Evidence against:** The reported download-and-execute behavior is not supported by the inspected launcher: its process spawn starts Chrome, and no download call was found there., The browser-page evaluation is part of a runtime browser action, not evidence of package-side arbitrary code execution at install or import time., The inspected credential request uses the selected HTTPS service origin, defaulting to r5d.dev. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @ricsam/r5d-browser@0.0.194-prod.1791637507463.g40e9e1c0846f697fbb07fca4ab876e7515e3d213. - Review the evidence and your use of @ricsam/r5d-browser@0.0.194-prod.1791637507463.g40e9e1c0846f697fbb07fca4ab876e7515e3d213 before allowing it.
