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 reviewed behavior fits a browser client: it uses a configured HTTPS server, launches an existing Chrome executable, and provides browser actions at runtime. No install hook or unrelated credential destination was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T10:59:00.813Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T10:59:37.825Z - **Download time:** 774 ms - **Static scan time:** 558 ms - **AI review time:** 35680 ms - **Total time:** 37012 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 attack was identified; the package connects a browser client to its configured r5d server and launches local Chrome. - **Trigger:** Explicit CLI invocation to start the browser client or run a browser action. - **Impact:** Expected browser control and registration behavior; no malicious behavior was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T10:59:37.825Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The client sends its credential and browser registration or action requests to the resolved HTTPS server. Browser JavaScript execution is available as a runtime action. - **Rationale:** The reviewed behavior fits a browser client: it uses a configured HTTPS server, launches an existing Chrome executable, and provides browser actions at runtime. No install hook or unrelated credential destination was found. - **Files touched:** The configured browser state directory and Chrome profile paths. - **Network endpoints:** ${origin}/api/personal/resources${route} ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exports a CLI entry point; its startup logic runs when the CLI is invoked., The browser client resolves its credential and server from explicit options, configuration, or environment, and requires HTTPS., Browser requests send the credential to the resolved server origin; the request payload includes basic host and runtime details for browser registration., Chrome is launched from an installed executable selected from standard locations or an explicit path., The dynamic JavaScript evaluator is part of the browser runtime and invokes supplied code as a browser action. - **Evidence against:** The manifest declares no lifecycle scripts, so installation does not trigger package code., The credential is sent to the configured r5d server, not to a separate hard-coded collector., The code path that launches Chrome is part of starting the browser client; no remote executable download was found in the reviewed launcher code. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @ricsam/r5d-browser@0.0.195-prod.1793357391968.g44652548da158476c71ddbcab1577886886c056a. - Review the evidence and your use of @ricsam/r5d-browser@0.0.195-prod.1793357391968.g44652548da158476c71ddbcab1577886886c056a before allowing it.
