AI Security Review

scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Confirmed install-time dependency mutation, but no confirmed theft, C2, or destructive payload. The risky surface is branding an OAuth callback page in a vendored SDK during npm install.

Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
npm install / package postinstall
Impact
Unconsented mutation of an auth-adjacent UI file; evidence supports warning rather than publish block because it appears cosmetic and non-exfiltrating.
Mechanism
install hook rewrites dependency OAuth callback page
Attack narrative
On installation, package.json runs scripts/brand-oauth-page.mjs. That script resolves @earendil-works/pi-ai/oauth, locates the SDK OAuth callback page, and rewrites the file with Brigade branding, embedded local assets, a favicon, and a title change. The hook does not contact a network endpoint or collect credentials, but it modifies an auth-adjacent dependency file without explicit user invocation.
Rationale
Source inspection confirms install-hook mutation of a dependency OAuth callback page, which is risky and unconsented but appears cosmetic and lacks concrete credential theft or exfiltration. Other flagged primitives are aligned with a CLI AI agent/channel tool and are user-invoked or defensive.
Evidence
package.jsonscripts/brand-oauth-page.mjsbrigade.mjsdist/entry.jsdist/security/injection-patterns.jsdist/agents/org/pride-image.jsnode_modules/@earendil-works/pi-ai/.../utils/oauth/oauth-page.js

Decision evidence

public snapshot
AI called this Suspicious at 78.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
  • package.json defines postinstall: node scripts/brand-oauth-page.mjs
  • scripts/brand-oauth-page.mjs resolves @earendil-works/pi-ai/oauth and rewrites its utils/oauth/oauth-page.js during install
  • Postinstall injects embedded logo/favicon data URIs and changes the OAuth callback page title/markup
  • Lifecycle hook mutates a dependency auth-related UI surface outside this package
Evidence against
  • Postinstall has no network calls and exits silently on failure
  • No credential/env harvesting or exfiltration found in install hook
  • brigade.mjs only checks Node version, filters warnings, and imports dist/entry.js
  • dist/entry.js only dispatches CLI commands; substantive network/auth flows are user-invoked
  • dist/security/injection-patterns.js is a defensive scanner; flagged Unicode is in its invisible-codepoint regex
  • dist/agents/org/pride-image.js uses dynamic import for playwright-core to render user-invoked images
