AI Security Review
scanned 7d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe transitive swagger-ui-dist dependency documents default-on installation analytics through Scarf, with opt-out instead of opt-in. Under the install-time contact rule, that undisabled install-time network behavior warrants blocking.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.
Trigger
Installing @tsed/swagger and its dependencies.
Impact
Installation activity and associated analytics are disclosed to an analytics service unrelated to serving Swagger UI.
Mechanism
swagger-ui-dist declares @scarf/scarf and documents that Scarf collects installation analytics during installation; the documented opt-out is not enabled by default.
Attack narrative
Installing this package includes swagger-ui-dist, which depends on @scarf/scarf. swagger-ui-dist documents that Scarf installation analytics run during installation unless the consuming project opts out. This creates default install-time contact with an analytics service unrelated to Swagger UI; the available evidence does not establish the exact payload.
AI rationale
The transitive swagger-ui-dist dependency documents default-on installation analytics through Scarf, with opt-out instead of opt-in. Under the install-time contact rule, that undisabled install-time network behavior warrants blocking.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 88.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- The package declares swagger-ui-dist as a runtime dependency.
- The included swagger-ui-dist package declares @scarf/scarf as a dependency.
- swagger-ui-dist documents installation analytics collected through Scarf, run during installation by default, with an opt-out setting.
Evidence against
- The analytics are disclosed as anonymized and can be disabled through scarfSettings.enabled in the consuming project's package.json.
- The package's own scripts are build, test, and development commands; it declares no lifecycle hook.
