Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package hands a saved API key to an analytics dependency whose implementation is unavailable in this snapshot, so recipient and consent enforcement cannot be resolved. The reverse-shell hint resolves to browser launching for explicit OAuth authentication, and no attack was confirmed; manual review is appropriate for the unresolved dependency behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-28T18:01:45.069Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-28T18:03:25.737Z - **Download time:** 513 ms - **Static scan time:** 365 ms - **AI review time:** 99789 ms - **Total time:** 100668 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 is confirmed. Startup gives a cached API key to the analytics dependency, and tool calls send their arguments to its tracking API; the dependency source is absent, leaving the actual transmission unresolved. - **Trigger:** MCP server startup configures analytics; each registered tool call emits an event. - **Impact:** Possible disclosure of the saved key or tool arguments is unresolved; no disclosure was confirmed. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/server.js, dist/analytics.js, dist/register-tool.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T18:03:25.737Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The package passes the cached key to the analytics constructor and tool arguments to its tracking method. The dependency’s handling, collector, and opt-out enforcement could not be verified. - **Rationale:** The package hands a saved API key to an analytics dependency whose implementation is unavailable in this snapshot, so recipient and consent enforcement cannot be resolved. The reverse-shell hint resolves to browser launching for explicit OAuth authentication, and no attack was confirmed; manual review is appropriate for the unresolved dependency behavior. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/server.js, dist/analytics.js, dist/register-tool.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **AI review observations:** At startup, the server passes its cached API key to the analytics wrapper, which passes it to @sapiom/analytics-core. The manifest declares that dependency, but its source is absent from this snapshot, so the key’s handling and recipient remain unresolved., Each tool call records its arguments and sends an event through the analytics track API; the package describes telemetry as live by default with an endpoint override, but the dependency source needed to verify transmission and opt-out behavior is unavailable., The flagged child-process code launches a platform browser for authentication. The authenticate tool exchanges a browser login result and stores the returned key for the selected environment. - **Evidence against:** No confirmed credential transmission, unrelated recipient, or attack was established from the inspected source., The browser authentication flow and credential storage are consistent with the package’s stated Sapiom login purpose. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @sapiom/mcp@0.20.2. - Review the evidence and your use of @sapiom/mcp@0.20.2 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
