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. At runtime, rendering features can download WebAssembly from two external URLs and execute it. This is a supply-chain risk, but no malicious follow-on behavior was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-15T18:57:14.051Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-15T18:58:37.546Z - **Download time:** 1015 ms - **Static scan time:** 28017 ms - **AI review time:** 54462 ms - **Total time:** 83495 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:** At runtime, rendering features can download WebAssembly from two external URLs and execute it. This is a supply-chain risk, but no malicious follow-on behavior was found. - **Trigger:** Using rendering or font-shaping functionality that initializes these loaders. - **Impact:** A compromised remote asset host could run arbitrary WebAssembly in the consumer's runtime context. - **Evidence paths:** dist/shotstack-studio.es.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-15T18:58:37.546Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote WebAssembly download and compilation without an integrity hash. - **Rationale:** The package contains a concrete remote-code loading capability without integrity verification, but the code structure ties it to renderer and font functionality and does not show malicious payload behavior. Treat it as an unresolved runtime supply-chain risk rather than a confirmed malicious package. - **Files touched:** dist/shotstack-studio.es.js - **Network endpoints:** https://unpkg.com/@resvg/resvg-wasm@2.6.2/index\_bg.wasm, https://js.shotstack.io/canvas/hb.wasm ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The runtime fetches a remote WebAssembly module and compiles it for execution., A font-rendering fallback fetches WebAssembly from a Shotstack-hosted URL., The remote modules have only a four-byte WebAssembly magic-number check and no integrity pin. - **Evidence against:** There is no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook; prepare only invokes Husky., No source evidence of credential harvesting, file exfiltration, shell execution, or persistence was found., The loaders are structurally associated with SVG rendering and font shaping in a video-editing library. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @shotstack/shotstack-studio@2.19.5. - Review the evidence and your use of @shotstack/shotstack-studio@2.19.5 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.
