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 inspected evidence does not establish malicious behavior, but the subprocess helper's reachable caller and inputs remain unresolved alongside incomplete static analysis of large bundles. Classify as suspicious for review rather than block or mark clean. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 69.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-11T18:15:39.831Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-11T18:17:16.676Z - **Download time:** 2553 ms - **Static scan time:** 16982 ms - **AI review time:** 77310 ms - **Total time:** 96845 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:** Bundled utilities include subprocess-launching capability, but inspection did not establish an active malicious chain. - **Trigger:** A consumer invoking the relevant helper with non-waiting execution options. - **Impact:** Potential command execution through the helper remains unresolved; no unauthorized execution or exfiltration was confirmed. - **Evidence paths:** dist/shared-utils.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-11T18:17:16.676Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The helper configures a detached subprocess; its command source and caller activation were not established in the inspected excerpts. - **Rationale:** The inspected evidence does not establish malicious behavior, but the subprocess helper's reachable caller and inputs remain unresolved alongside incomplete static analysis of large bundles. Classify as suspicious for review rather than block or mark clean. - **Network endpoints:** https://cloud.uipath.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 69.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest exposes the package as an SDK with library entrypoints and no declared lifecycle hook., A bundled helper can detach a subprocess when its caller requests non-waiting execution; the exact caller and inputs are not established here., The authentication bundle defaults to UiPath Cloud and rejects non-HTTPS authority URLs. - **Evidence against:** The inspected source does not establish that subprocess execution runs automatically on install or import., The visible authentication configuration enforces TLS and does not show credential forwarding to an unrelated destination. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @uipath/maestro-sdk@1.203.0. - Review the evidence and your use of @uipath/maestro-sdk@1.203.0 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.
