This report does not record a matching static-policy override reason. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. No install-time or import-time attack was identified. The published package is a browser video-editing library whose network use is font, wasm, and schema loading for editing. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-25T20:56:16.281Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-25T20:58:16.013Z - **Download time:** 1270 ms - **Static scan time:** 28750 ms - **AI review time:** 89711 ms - **Total time:** 119732 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:** No install-time or import-time attack was identified. The published package is a browser video-editing library whose network use is font, wasm, and schema loading for editing. - **Trigger:** No automatic install or import trigger runs attacker-controlled code. - **Impact:** No credential theft, persistence, or unconsented agent-control mutation was found in the published sources. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-25T20:58:16.013Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Registry install does not execute lifecycle hooks. Runtime work is rendering, playback, and optional font or wasm fetches chosen by the editing API. - **Rationale:** Static review of package.json and both published entry bundles shows a Shotstack video editor with no registry install hook and no secret harvesting. Remote font decompression and animation eval are user-invoked library behavior, not a separate attack chain. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Final policy explanation:** The AI recommended clean, but the final policy action is warn. This report does not record a matching static-policy override reason. - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook. Its scripts are prepare (husky), build, test, and prepublishOnly, and those script files are not in the published file list., The main ES and UMD entrypoints are a Shotstack video-editing bundle that imports pixi.js, howler, pixi-filters, and opentype.js. Searches found no child\_process, process.env, credential reads, or webhook endpoints. - **Evidence against:** Font loading can fetch a pinned wawoff2 script from unpkg and pass it to new Function, and animation code uses eval for expressions. Both sit on user-driven media paths inside bundled graphics libraries, not on install. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @shotstack/shotstack-studio@2.22.7. - Review the evidence and your use of @shotstack/shotstack-studio@2.22.7 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.
