AI Security Review

scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Source inspection confirms that global npm installation automatically registers or installs this package's agent integration and may write client hook settings. This is a guarded first-party extension setup risk, not evidence of credential theft or a broader attack.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

Installing the package globally with npm, unless VIBE_SKIP_SETUP is set.

Impact

The package can become available to agent clients and its notification hooks can run in future sessions; setup is automatic as part of the global install.

Mechanism

The postinstall script calls global setup, which processes detected clients and writes the package-owned plugin registration or hook configuration.

AI rationale

Evidence

package.jsonscripts/postinstall.jsdist/install/global.jsdist/install/plugin.jsdist/install/register.jsdist/install/hooks.js.agents/plugins/marketplace.json.config/vibe/plugin/vibe.claude/settings.json

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 84.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The manifest defines a postinstall hook that runs the package setup script.
The hook runs global integration setup for global npm installs unless VIBE_SKIP_SETUP is set.
Global setup processes every detected client and invokes its installer.
The Codex installer adds a personal marketplace and installs the vibe plugin.
The plugin installer assembles files under the user home and updates the personal marketplace entry.
The Codex plugin entry is marked available with authentication on install.
A settings-file hook installer adds notification hooks and writes the updated settings.
The cited register location reads the installed Claude plugin version to determine whether it is current.

Evidence against

The postinstall hook exits for non-global installs or when VIBE_SKIP_SETUP is set.
The plugin is identified as a local first-party vibe integration; no credential transfer or unrelated network endpoint was identified in the inspected setup path.

3 * vibe for the Claude desktop app — an MCP Bundle server that is nothing but a cable to the

4 * `vibe` CLI. Every tool runs `vibe <command> --json` in the project folder the user picked at

5 * install time (VIBE_PROJECT_DIR) and returns the JSON. The verdict stays in the CLI; this

6 * surface is for the interview, the approval, the judgement and the handoff — not for writing code.

7 *

8 * MCP over stdio is newline-delimited JSON-RPC 2.0. Three methods matter here: initialize,

9 * tools/list, tools/call. No SDK: the protocol subset is small and the bundle stays dependency-free.
