The fetched checksum does not independently authenticate that release. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-16T13:16:45.846Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-16T13:17:57.105Z - **Download time:** 755 ms - **Static scan time:** 106 ms - **AI review time:** 70395 ms - **Total time:** 71259 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** npm postinstall fetches a remote release, extracts it into the package, and runs its installer. The fetched checksum does not independently authenticate that release. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall; package CLI invocation - **Impact:** A changed release or configured base URL can supply code executed during installation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/ccb-npm-install.js, bin/ccb-npm-runner.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-16T13:17:57.105Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** remote archive staging and shell execution - **Rationale:** The reviewed source establishes an install-time remote payload chain with no pinned independent integrity proof. It does not itself show exfiltration, destructive actions, or foreign agent-control-surface mutation, so blocking as malicious is not supported. - **Files touched:** bin/ccb-npm-install.js, bin/ccb-npm-runner.js, .ccb-release, .ccb-install.lock - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/SeemSeam/claude\_codex\_bridge/releases/download/v${version} ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** postinstall invokes the installer., Installer downloads a release archive and its checksum from a remotely configurable base URL., Checksum is fetched from the same source as the archive, then the archive is extracted., Installer executes downloaded install.sh; CLI wrappers later execute downloaded binaries. - **Evidence against:** Shipped JavaScript contains no credential harvesting or exfiltration logic., No shipped code writes foreign AI-agent configuration; downloaded payload is unavailable for inspection. ## Public findings ### 1.
