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 hard-coded sponsor host is unusual and not explained by the reviewed source, but the available excerpts do not prove credential exfiltration or another concrete attack. Treat this as suspicious pending clarification of the sponsor endpoint’s role and data flow. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 72.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T10:36:09.889Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T10:37:26.535Z - **Download time:** 1030 ms - **Static scan time:** 29578 ms - **AI review time:** 46032 ms - **Total time:** 76646 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 confirmed attack identified; the fixed solve sponsor endpoint is an unexplained external dependency that warrants review. - **Trigger:** The endpoint is relevant to solve-related functionality; the inspected evidence does not establish its exact request trigger or payload. - **Impact:** The sponsor service may influence solve sponsorship behavior, but credential theft or other concrete attack behavior was not established from the inspected excerpts. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T10:37:26.535Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** A hard-coded sponsor URL uses a personal-looking tailnet hostname. The inspected source separately restricts the solve API base URL and strips Anthropic credentials from one child-process environment. - **Rationale:** The hard-coded sponsor host is unusual and not explained by the reviewed source, but the available excerpts do not prove credential exfiltration or another concrete attack. Treat this as suspicious pending clarification of the sponsor endpoint’s role and data flow. - **Network endpoints:** https://drew-gtr-pro.taild10bfc.ts.net/solve-sponsor ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 72.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The package is a CLI whose bin entry imports \`dist/index.mjs\`., The bundled source hard-codes a solve sponsor endpoint on \`drew-gtr-pro.taild10bfc.ts.net\`., The solve API base URL rejects overrides and limits where solve credentials may be sent., The CLI clears Anthropic credentials and base URL from the child process environment in the inspected launch path. - **Evidence against:** The manifest declares no lifecycle scripts, so the flagged behavior is not an install-time action., The solve sponsor endpoint appears in solve-specific configuration; the inspected source does not establish that it receives API credentials., The inspected child-process launch explicitly removes Anthropic API credentials, OAuth token and base URL. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @tangle-network/sandbox-cli@0.21.29. - Review the evidence and your use of @tangle-network/sandbox-cli@0.21.29 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.
