@socketsecurity/cli-with-sentry@1.1.158
CLI for Socket.dev, includes Sentry error handling, otherwise identical to the regular `socket` package
AI Security Review
scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package is an explicitly invoked Socket CLI variant with Sentry instrumentation; its authenticated network use is package-aligned. No install-time hook or concrete malicious chain was found.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Running a provided CLI command
Impact
Sends CLI exceptions to Sentry and authenticated API requests to Socket services.
Mechanism
CLI security scanning with Sentry error reporting and Socket API requests
AI rationale
The package is an explicitly invoked Socket CLI variant with Sentry instrumentation; its authenticated network use is package-aligned. No install-time hook or concrete malicious chain was found.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 96.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- Invoked CLI enables Sentry error reporting to the embedded Sentry DSN.
- Socket API requests send the configured Socket API token to the configured Socket API base URL.
- The npm shadow command inspects dependency changes and stops on reported risks.
Evidence against
- package.json exposes CLI bins but has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook.
- Sentry behavior matches the package description and is only loaded by the invoked CLI.
- No unconsented persistence, destructive action, remote code loading, or broad credential harvesting was confirmed.
