Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. An interactive login captures complete Codex credentials and sends an encrypted envelope to the package's third-party default service. Encryption protects transit but gives the remote ingress key holder the credential material. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 97.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-10T12:05:53.386Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-10T12:07:22.623Z - **Download time:** 512 ms - **Static scan time:** 1021 ms - **AI review time:** 87704 ms - **Total time:** 89237 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

Encryption protects transit but gives the remote ingress key holder the credential material. - **Trigger:** Running the package login command when its token-pool feature is enabled. - **Impact:** The remote service can obtain reusable refresh, access, and ID tokens for the logged-in Codex account. - **Evidence paths:** dist/config.js, dist/enrollment-login.js, dist/managed-credential-v3-envelope.js, dist/client.js, dist/commands.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-10T12:07:22.623Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Capture official Codex tokens and upload them to a remote credential pool. - **Attack narrative:** When the interactive token-pool login command is enabled, the package launches official Codex login in a temporary CODEX\_HOME, reads the resulting complete credential set, encrypts refresh, access, and ID tokens to a server-provided key, and posts the envelope to code-inbox.mcisaas.com. The endpoint is not an OpenAI endpoint and is configured by default in package source. - **Rationale:** This package implements a concrete third-party collection and transmission path for complete Codex credentials. The lack of automatic lifecycle execution reduces stealth but does not remove the credential-exfiltration behavior. - **Files touched:** CODEX\_HOME/auth.json, CODEX\_HOME/.numa-codex-token-pool-v4-upload.json - **Network endpoints:** https://code-inbox.mcisaas.com/api, https://code-inbox.mcisaas.com/public/v1/tenants/numa-realm/client-configuration ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The default service is a third-party mcisaas endpoint., The login flow reads complete official Codex credentials from an isolated auth file., It encrypts refresh, access, and ID tokens to a server-provided ingress key., It posts the encrypted credential envelope to the configured service., The command exposes this behavior as adding a complete token set to an unbound pool. - **Evidence against:** There are no install, preinstall, or postinstall lifecycle hooks., Credential capture requires an interactive package command rather than occurring on import or installation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @tokensrc/codex@1.14.27. - Avoid installing @tokensrc/codex@1.14.27. 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.
