Unconsented persistence in a broad AI-agent control surface can cause local programs to run during future Claude Code interactions. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.22.149 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installation silently modifies the user's Claude Code hook configuration when two Telora executables are present. The added hooks run after tool use and when prompts are submitted. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-16T14:22:18.047Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-16T14:23:11.120Z - **Download time:** 774 ms - **Static scan time:** 768 ms - **AI review time:** 51529 ms - **Total time:** 53073 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

The added hooks run after tool use and when prompts are submitted. - **Trigger:** Installing the package while telora-ai-hook and telora-ai-human-hook are available on the system path. - **Impact:** Unconsented persistence in a broad AI-agent control surface can cause local programs to run during future Claude Code interactions. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-16T14:23:11.120Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Install-time mutation of Claude Code command hooks. - **Attack narrative:** The package's automatic post-install lifecycle locates local Telora hook executables and silently edits the user's Claude Code settings. It registers one command for post-tool events and another for prompt-submission events, creating persistent execution during later agent use without an explicit setup command. - **Rationale:** The automatic lifecycle hook mutates a foreign, broad AI-agent control surface and installs behavior-bearing commands. This meets the install-control-surface blocking policy despite the conditional local executable lookup. - **Files touched:** ~/.claude/settings.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The install lifecycle runs a post-install script., The post-install script locates two executable hook programs on the system path., When both are found, it adds command hooks to the user's Claude Code settings and writes that file. - **Evidence against:** The hook commands are local executable paths; this script contains no network request or payload download., The other observed network client is a runtime API client using configured credentials. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @telora/mcp-products@0.22.149. - Avoid installing @telora/mcp-products@0.22.149. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
