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. The inspected runtime behavior matches the package’s stated browser-relay function and is activated by a user starting the CLI. The source shows HTTPS requests to the resolved origin and no concrete malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-14T19:11:57.497Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-14T19:13:24.073Z - **Download time:** 770 ms - **Static scan time:** 518 ms - **AI review time:** 85287 ms - **Total time:** 86576 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 malicious attack surface was identified. The package connects a persistent Chrome profile to its browser service and relays that service’s browser actions, consistent with its stated purpose. - **Trigger:** A user runs the browser start command with a configured server and credential. - **Impact:** The configured service can control the connected browser session; inspected source did not establish an unrelated credential recipient or other malicious behavior. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-14T19:13:24.073Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The client registers and polls over HTTPS, then executes returned browser actions, including page-scoped JavaScript. - **Rationale:** The inspected runtime behavior matches the package’s stated browser-relay function and is activated by a user starting the CLI. The source shows HTTPS requests to the resolved origin and no concrete malicious behavior. - **Network endpoints:** https://r5d.dev ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json points to the CLI entrypoint and declares no lifecycle script., The client resolves a configured connection, requires HTTPS, and sends bearer-authenticated requests to that same origin; its registration, polling, forwarding, and receipt calls use the shared request function., The CLI describes connecting a persistent Chrome profile to the r5d service, and the runtime applies actions returned by that service, including JavaScript executed in the page., The Chrome launcher starts the local Chrome executable, while the navigation observer watches page events. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @ricsam/r5d-browser@0.0.194-prod.1792004703240.g9c45c744f07a303b706a8a4235a0217c47999f53. - Review the evidence and your use of @ricsam/r5d-browser@0.0.194-prod.1792004703240.g9c45c744f07a303b706a8a4235a0217c47999f53 before allowing it.
