Install-time scripts register a Chrome MCP bridge and may fetch a ripgrep executable. The fetched executable lacks an in-package integrity check, leaving a supply-chain exposure. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-08T02:21:14.342Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-08T02:22:01.343Z - **Download time:** 752 ms - **Static scan time:** 3235 ms - **AI review time:** 43013 ms - **Total time:** 47001 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Install-time scripts register a Chrome MCP bridge and may fetch a ripgrep executable. The fetched executable lacks an in-package integrity check, leaving a supply-chain exposure. - **Trigger:** npm install - **Impact:** Chrome integration is configured; a substituted download source could install a trojaned ripgrep binary. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/setup-chrome-mcp.mjs, scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/chunks/esm-CsGLyWmS.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T02:22:01.343Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall bridge registration and remote binary download - **Rationale:** Source confirms risky automatic setup and an unverified remote executable fetch. It does not confirm malicious intent or a concrete exfiltration chain. - **Files touched:** scripts/setup-chrome-mcp.mjs, scripts/postinstall.cjs, dist/vendor/ripgrep/\-\/rg, ~/Library/Logs/mcp-chrome-bridge or platform equivalent - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/microsoft/ripgrep-prebuilt/releases/download/v15.0.1, https://ghproxy.net/https://github.com/microsoft/ripgrep-prebuilt/releases/download/v15.0.1 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs postinstall automatically., scripts/setup-chrome-mcp.mjs invokes bridge register for Chrome., scripts/postinstall.cjs downloads an executable without checksum verification., RIPGREP\_DOWNLOAD\_BASE can replace the download origin. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or exfiltration found in inspected lifecycle scripts., The credential hint in dist/chunks/esm-CsGLyWmS.js is bundled Azure identity code., Chrome setup is a named package-owned bridge setup, not a demonstrated foreign-agent config write. ## Public findings ### 1.
