A dependency install silently registers package-controlled MCP servers for future Codex use and alters third-party dependency files. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.3.0 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installing the package automatically changes the consumer project's MCP and Codex agent configuration. It also writes a patch into the resolved three dependency. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-31T20:00:35.575Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-31T20:01:24.171Z - **Download time:** 767 ms - **Static scan time:** 1746 ms - **AI review time:** 46083 ms - **Total time:** 48596 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installing the package automatically changes the consumer project's MCP and Codex agent configuration. It also writes a patch into the resolved three dependency. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall during package installation. - **Impact:** A dependency install silently registers package-controlled MCP servers for future Codex use and alters third-party dependency files. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, mcp/install.mjs, scripts/apply-three-patch.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-31T20:01:24.171Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic project-level AI-agent configuration injection and dependency patching. - **Attack narrative:** On installation, the postinstall hook calls MCP setup and a dependency patcher. MCP setup identifies the consumer project, creates or edits .mcp.json, and appends named servers to .codex/config.toml. Those servers execute scripts from this package whenever the configured agent host uses them. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of a foreign project-level AI-agent control surface, compounded by modification of the resolved three dependency. - **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall hook silently writes consumer project AI-agent configuration and patches a third-party dependency. This meets the policy threshold for malicious install-hook abuse even though no secret exfiltration was found. - **Files touched:** .mcp.json, .codex/config.toml, node\_modules/three ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The package runs its setup automatically through a postinstall hook., The postinstall path invokes MCP setup without requiring a user command., The setup adds ThreeNative commands to the consumer project's Codex MCP configuration., It creates or appends to .codex/config.toml in the consumer project., The hook also patches files in the resolved third-party three dependency. - **Evidence against:** The MCP entries run local package scripts rather than a remote URL., The MCP config merge preserves existing text and only adds missing named entries., No credential collection or network exfiltration was found in the inspected lifecycle code. ## Public findings ### 1.

Critical: Ai Agent Control Hijack - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** mcp/install.mjs - **Public source:** [View source]() Source creates an unconsented AI-agent control surface through install-time mutation or a default unauthenticated remote skill channel. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript Install-time code directly mutates a foreign AI-agent control surface: L1: import { existsSync, mkdirSync, readFileSync, writeFileSync } from "node:fs"; L2: import path from "node:path"; L3: import { mergeMcpServers } from "./servers.mjs"; L4: ...
