AI Security Review
scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiNo confirmed malicious attack surface was established from package-local source. The only install-time concern is a postinstall chmod helper path that is not included in this platform subpackage.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
npm install runs postinstall; user running bin/sciagent prints a stub message
Impact
No confirmed data access, exfiltration, persistence, or AI-agent control mutation in inspected package files.
Mechanism
platform placeholder shell script plus external chmod lifecycle reference
Rationale
Static inspection found an inert platform stub and no concrete malicious behavior; the lifecycle hook is suspicious only because its target is outside this package, but the package-local evidence does not show attack behavior. Mark clean with medium confidence due to the uninspectable parent-relative chmod script reference.
Evidence
package.jsonbin/sciagent
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 78.0% confidence as Benign with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- package.json defines postinstall: node ../../scripts/chmod.js, an install-time hook outside this package directory and not inspectable here.
Evidence against
- Only two package files present: package.json and bin/sciagent.
- bin/sciagent is a 360-byte POSIX shell stub that only prints platform-unavailable/build-from-source guidance and exits 1.
- No credential/env harvesting, destructive commands, persistence, eval, dynamic loading, or exfiltration found in package files.
- No runtime network access found; gitee URL appears only in repository metadata and echoed clone instructions.
- postinstall name suggests chmod helper for package binary permissions, aligned with platform CLI packaging.
