Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 13 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Install Hook Abuse - **Selected version:** 2.7.0 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **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 postinstall hook performs unpinned remote binary installation and user-level pip installation, which leaves a real supply-chain risk. The inspected source does not establish malicious intent or a concrete attack, so this warrants a warning rather than a block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 89.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-10T12:11:52.638Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-10T12:12:18.514Z - **Download time:** 1292 ms - **Static scan time:** 53 ms - **AI review time:** 24530 ms - **Total time:** 25876 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:** The automatic installer downloads and installs a native CLI binary and Python packages. - **Trigger:** Installing the npm package runs its postinstall script. - **Impact:** The downloaded binary and installed Python packages can execute code; the release version and archive integrity are not pinned in the inspected flow. The vendor-aligned purpose is apparent, so malicious behavior is not established. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-10T12:12:18.514Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The installer fetches the latest release from a configurable Gitea host, downloads a platform archive, and invokes pip to install packages for the current user. - **Rationale:** The postinstall hook performs unpinned remote binary installation and user-level pip installation, which leaves a real supply-chain risk. The inspected source does not establish malicious intent or a concrete attack, so this warrants a warning rather than a block. - **Files touched:** bin/tfcode.js, postinstall.mjs - **Network endpoints:** gitea.toothfairyai.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 89.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The postinstall hook automatically runs the installer., The installer fetches the latest release and downloads a platform binary from a configurable host without a pinned version or integrity check., The installer also invokes pip to install packages for the current user., The launcher runs the selected native binary with the caller’s arguments and environment. - **Evidence against:** The inspected install flow targets ToothFairyAI release assets and its Python SDK, consistent with installing this CLI., The inspected source shows no credential harvesting or AI-agent control-setting mutation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @toothfairyai/tfcode@2.7.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @toothfairyai/tfcode@2.7.0 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.
