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 package has no install lifecycle hook and its visible behavior is consistent with a user-invoked UiPath CLI wrapper. However, the obscured telemetry endpoint and incomplete static coverage around bundled command-launching code leave a bounded unresolved risk, so a warning is warranted rather than a clean verdict. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 76.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-07T13:50:23.425Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-07T13:52:54.386Z - **Download time:** 260 ms - **Static scan time:** 1492 ms - **AI review time:** 149208 ms - **Total time:** 150961 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:** No automatic install-time attack surface is established. At runtime, the user-invoked CLI can send redacted telemetry and delegate commands to a locally configured UiPath executable. - **Trigger:** A user runs the context-grounding-tool command. - **Impact:** A configured UiPath authentication flow may contact its configured identity endpoint; no unconsented exfiltration or destructive behavior was confirmed. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-07T13:52:54.386Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** User-invoked Python CLI delegation with telemetry. - **Rationale:** The package has no install lifecycle hook and its visible behavior is consistent with a user-invoked UiPath CLI wrapper. However, the obscured telemetry endpoint and incomplete static coverage around bundled command-launching code leave a bounded unresolved risk, so a warning is warranted rather than a clean verdict. - **Network endpoints:** westeurope-5.in.applicationinsights.azure.com, westeurope.livediagnostics.monitor.azure.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 76.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** High - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes a command-line entrypoint, so package code runs when the user invokes the tool., The runtime decodes a Base64 telemetry connection string, obscuring its telemetry destination from ordinary source review., A bundled helper can spawn a command with caller-supplied arguments; the surrounding bundle is too large for complete static alias coverage. - **Evidence against:** package.json declares no preinstall, install, postinstall, or other lifecycle hook., The visible CLI is a wrapper for a locally configured UiPath Python executable and runs only after a user command., The telemetry code includes redaction for token, secret, password, credential, JWT, URL, and home-directory values., No source evidence shows secret harvesting, destructive actions, persistence, self-dependency, or agent-control configuration writes. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @uipath/context-grounding-tool@1.201.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @uipath/context-grounding-tool@1.201.0 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.
