Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Telemetry warning (can be blocked) - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Telemetry - **Selected version:** 1.53.1 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **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 SDK sends runtime analytics that include identifying user, cluster, and host details, and embed creation adds most view configuration fields to an event. This is a telemetry risk; the inspected auth flow targets the caller-supplied ThoughtSpot host and does not establish credential exfiltration. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-04T01:39:56.350Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-04T01:40:57.999Z - **Download time:** 1038 ms - **Static scan time:** 10019 ms - **AI review time:** 50591 ms - **Total time:** 61649 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:** Runtime analytics identify users and report host and cluster details; no malicious attack was identified. - **Trigger:** Creating an embed, after Mixpanel has been initialized with a session token. - **Impact:** Telemetry may link SDK use and embed configuration to a user, cluster, or host application. - **Evidence paths:** lib/src/embed/ts-embed.js, lib/src/utils/runtimeTelemetry.js, lib/src/mixpanel-service.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T01:40:57.999Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The SDK tracks an embed creation event and registers userGUID, cluster identifiers, release version, SDK version, and host application hostname with Mixpanel. It also forwards view configuration fields beyond the specially summarized filters and parameters. - **Rationale:** The SDK sends runtime analytics that include identifying user, cluster, and host details, and embed creation adds most view configuration fields to an event. This is a telemetry risk; the inspected auth flow targets the caller-supplied ThoughtSpot host and does not establish credential exfiltration. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** Creating an embed automatically queues a Mixpanel event containing a summary of its view configuration., The summary forwards all view configuration fields except runtime filters and parameters, which are reduced to counts and recognized enum values., Mixpanel setup identifies non-public users by userGUID and registers cluster identifiers and the host application hostname. - **Evidence against:** The package is an SDK for embedding ThoughtSpot analytics, and its auth service sends tokens to the caller-supplied ThoughtSpot host., Runtime filter and parameter values are explicitly excluded from telemetry; only counts and recognized enum values are retained., The manifest's prepare and prepublishOnly scripts are Husky setup and build/test tasks, with no install-time network hook. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk@1.53.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk@1.53.1 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.
