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

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.0.195-prod.1793199902926.gf45ba852f63ec3cb162a384e4adf68a69c0a4fe0
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The manifest has no install hook, and the inspected credential flow targets the HTTPS r5d origin selected through the client’s connection settings. Scanner flags for evaluation, subprocesses, and networking do not establish malicious behavior in the inspected source.

## Latest scan

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 was identified in the inspected paths. The CLI sends its browser registration and authenticated requests to the configured r5d origin.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the browser CLI and starts a connection.

- **Impact:** The inspected behavior supports the intended browser connection; no unrelated credential recipient or install-time mutation was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T15:39:04.811Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The client resolves an origin and credential from supplied options or client configuration, requires HTTPS, then uses that origin for authenticated requests.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install hook, and the inspected credential flow targets the HTTPS r5d origin selected through the client’s connection settings. Scanner flags for evaluation, subprocesses, and networking do not establish malicious behavior in the inspected source.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 84.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest points to the CLI entry point and declares no install lifecycle hooks; the CLI connects to a configured r5d server and enables telemetry for that origin., Saved credentials are sent to the HTTPS server resolved from command-line, config, environment, or default settings; requests use that same origin, and registration sends browser identity and capability data as part of the product connection., The navigation observer compiles a caller-provided URL pattern into an anchored regular expression for matching., The core bundle exports Playwright core components, including server, tools, and utilities., The utility bundle reads DEBUG\_\* environment variables to build its inspection options., The locale files import shared core utilities and define localized validation helpers or wording; the Khmer compatibility module delegates to the Khmer locale., The locale files implement translated validation sizing and messages; ua.js delegates to the Ukrainian locale implementation., The Playwright declaration files are generated protocol and type definitions.

- **Evidence against:** The source excerpt for the navigation observer shows URL-pattern matching and does not establish an unrelated account action or credential transfer., The inspected package code did not show an unrelated credential recipient or an install-time attack.
