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. Inspected source establishes token forwarding to an unrestricted configured deployment endpoint through an explicit CLI command. The opt-in override prevents treating this as covert theft, but does not prevent exposure of an automatically obtained service credential. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-02T11:15:14.248Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-02T11:20:27.407Z - **Download time:** 1018 ms - **Static scan time:** 56514 ms - **AI review time:** 255626 ms - **Total time:** 313159 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:** Hydrogen deployment can forward an automatically retrieved Oxygen deployment token to an operator-configured HTTPS endpoint. This is conditional credential exposure; no covert attack was confirmed. - **Trigger:** Run shopify hydrogen deploy with UNSAFE\_SHOPIFY\_HYDROGEN\_DEPLOYMENT\_URL set, using a linked storefront without supplying a replacement token. - **Impact:** The configured endpoint can receive a token intended for Oxygen deployment. - **Evidence paths:** dist/chunk-TAY7HU7X.js, dist/chunk-CNK3ZO2B.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-02T11:20:27.407Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The deployment workflow substitutes the configured URL without a Shopify destination allowlist, then sends the deployment token in authenticated GraphQL requests. - **Rationale:** Inspected source establishes token forwarding to an unrestricted configured deployment endpoint through an explicit CLI command. The opt-in override prevents treating this as covert theft, but does not prevent exposure of an automatically obtained service credential. - **Network endpoints:** https://oxygen.shopifyapps.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The explicit Hydrogen deployment command invokes the deployment workflow., Without a caller-supplied token, interactive deployment retrieves and uses the linked storefront's Oxygen deployment token., UNSAFE\_SHOPIFY\_HYDROGEN\_DEPLOYMENT\_URL overrides the recipient; URL validation does not restrict it to Shopify hosts., Build initiation sends the deployment access token to the selected endpoint's GraphQL API., The GraphQL client attaches token-derived headers and executes the request against the supplied URL., The indicated AGENTS.md location is a theme file watch pattern, not an agent configuration installation hook. - **Evidence against:** No npm install lifecycle hooks or runtime self-dependency appear in package.json., The custom endpoint requires an explicit environment override and emits a warning., No covert credential theft or malicious intent was established. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @shopify/cli@4.8.4. - Review the evidence and your use of @shopify/cli@4.8.4 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.
