# @socketsecurity/cli-with-sentry@1.1.176 npm security report

> **Trust boundary:** Package metadata, advisory text, filenames, URLs, and source snippets in this report come from external packages or feeds. Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document.

## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 26 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Staged Payload Carrier
- **Selected version:** 1.1.176
- **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 published package is a user-invoked Socket CLI without a registry install hook, but the Maven manifest path executes a binary jar that static inspection could not read. That opaque executable is an unresolved payload on a real command path, so the package is warned rather than marked clean or blocked.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 66.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-24T00:23:37.986Z
- **Finished:** 2026-09-24T00:27:19.216Z
- **Download time:** 774 ms
- **Static scan time:** 34016 ms
- **AI review time:** 186439 ms
- **Total time:** 221230 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 hook was found. A user manifest command loads the bundled binary coana-maven-extension.jar onto the Maven extension classpath. That jar could not be decoded as source, so its behavior stays unverified.

- **Trigger:** A user runs a Socket CLI manifest command that selects Maven.

- **Impact:** If the opaque jar contains unexpected code, it would run inside the user-invoked Maven process. No install-time compromise was shown.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/cli.js, dist/manifest-scripts/maven-extension/coana-maven-extension.jar

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-24T00:27:19.216Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** dist/cli.js passes -Dmaven.ext.class.path to the local jar and invokes Maven validate. The jar bytes themselves were not inspectable.

- **Rationale:** The published package is a user-invoked Socket CLI without a registry install hook, but the Maven manifest path executes a binary jar that static inspection could not read. That opaque executable is an unresolved payload on a real command path, so the package is warned rather than marked clean or blocked.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 66.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** package.json version 1.1.176 exposes user bin commands and has no preinstall, install, or postinstall script., bin/cli.js starts the bundled CLI in a child process and preloads Sentry only when the Sentry build flag is set., dist/cli.js places coana-maven-extension.jar on maven.ext.class.path and runs Maven validate only from the user manifest command., dist/manifest-scripts/maven-extension/coana-maven-extension.jar is a binary file and could not be read as source, so the bytecode executed on that path is unverified., dist/vendor.js sets the Socket API base URL to https://api.socket.dev/v0., external/blessed/lib/tput.js defines the Blessed Tput terminal helper., external/@socketsecurity/registry/external/libnpmpack.js implements ordinary npm pack for a package spec.

- **Evidence against:** Registry install does not run a lifecycle hook, and the Maven jar is reached only after a user launches a manifest command., The surrounding CLI calls api.socket.dev and optional Sentry reporting, which matches the published Socket CLI product.

## Affected versions and remediation
