Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse - **Selected version:** 0.94.0 - **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package provides explicit user-invoked AI-agent configuration mutation and remote installer execution, warranting a warning. Source inspection found no unconsented lifecycle execution, stealth persistence, or exfiltration chain. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-21T10:18:59.488Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-21T10:20:09.921Z - **Download time:** 505 ms - **Static scan time:** 3838 ms - **AI review time:** 66089 ms - **Total time:** 70433 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:** Explicit plugin setup can install configured plugins and register their MCP entrypoints in local AI-agent configurations and remote session Pods. No install-time mutation or fixed exfiltration endpoint is present. - **Trigger:** User runs \`h2a plugin add\` and optionally \`h2a plugin sync\`. - **Impact:** A user-specified plugin or shell installer can gain execution through registered agent MCP configuration or remote Pods. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/index.js, dist/plugin.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-21T10:20:09.921Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Explicit MCP registration and remote configured installer execution. - **Rationale:** The package provides explicit user-invoked AI-agent configuration mutation and remote installer execution, warranting a warning. Source inspection found no unconsented lifecycle execution, stealth persistence, or exfiltration chain. - **Files touched:** ~/.claude.json, ~/.codex/config.toml, ~/.gemini/config/mcp\_config.json, $HOME/.remote-manifest.json, $HOME/.remote-manifest.sha256 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** Explicit plugin commands register MCP servers in Claude, Codex, and Agy., The command directly writes user AI-agent configuration files., User-supplied installer commands can be persisted and executed in remote session Pods. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., The agent-config changes require explicit \`plugin add\` and \`plugin sync\` CLI actions., No fixed external exfiltration endpoint or hidden import-time payload was found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.94.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.94.0 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. Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 2. Medium: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references environment variables. ### 3. Low: Filesystem - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 70.0% Package source references filesystem APIs. ### 4. High: Copied Package Dependency Bridge - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 83.0% - **Path:** dist/pty.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package metadata claims a different repository identity while copied source loads a runtime dependency bridge. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript package = @sentropic/h2a-runtime; repositoryIdentity = h2a; dependency = node-pty L76: try { L77: require("node-pty"); L78: } ``` ### 5. High: External Ai Agent Control Surface Mutation - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Path:** dist/plugin.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Runtime or CLI source writes behavior-bearing configuration into a user or project AI-agent control surface. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript Runtime or CLI code links a write operation to an explicit external AI-agent control path: nd, args: [...args] }; root.mcpservers = servers; return json.stringify(root, null, 2) + "\n"; } export function mergeclaudemcpservers(json, name, command, args) { return mergemcpserversjson(json, name, command, args, "claude.json"); } export function mergeagymcpservers(json, name, command, args) { return mergemcpserversjson(json, name, command, args, "mcp_config.json"); } ``` ### 6. Low: High Entropy Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 55.0% Package source contains high-entropy string patterns. ### 7. Low: Url Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 65.0% Package source contains URL literals. ### 8. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 80.0% Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean. ### 9. High: Previous Version Dangerous Delta - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Path:** dist/llm-mesh.js - **Public source:** [View source]() This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta matchedPackage = @sentropic/h2a-runtime@0.93.5 matchedIdentity = npm:QHNlbnRyb3BpYy9oMmEtcnVudGltZQ:0.93.5 similarity = 0.952 summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file ``` ### 10. Medium: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** dist/index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Explicit plugin commands register MCP servers in Claude, Codex, and Agy. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript .command("add ") .description("Register a plugin propagated to sessions. npm (default): `npm i -g ` + register its MCP server(s) with claude + codex + agy. " + '--curl / --install "": a NON-npm tool, installed in each Pod on sync by piping an https script or running a shell command (e.g. a Go binary\'s install.sh).
