- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 1.202.0
- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The package has no lifecycle hook or self-dependency and its inspected bundles implement explicit workflow tooling. Network and credential-related code is aligned with caller-provided publishing and authenticated UiPath operations.

## Latest scan

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack surface was identified in the inspected package entrypoints.

- **Trigger:** No install-time trigger is declared.

- **Impact:** No confirmed malicious impact was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-22T19:16:06.642Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The inspected code exposes workflow packaging, publishing, authentication, and browser helper APIs; no covert execution path was found.

- **Rationale:** The package has no lifecycle hook or self-dependency and its inspected bundles implement explicit workflow tooling. Network and credential-related code is aligned with caller-provided publishing and authenticated UiPath operations.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest defines module entrypoints and contains no lifecycle scripts or dependencies., The Node bundle exposes project packager and publisher factories rather than executing work at import time., Authentication requires a logged-in connection with an access token and UiPath context before workflow configuration is returned., The packager bundle copies produced packages to a caller-selected destination., The browser helper only exports its application-opening API.
