- **Selected version:** 1.201.0
- **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 is a user-invoked legacy UiPath CLI wrapper with no lifecycle execution. Its remote binary retrieval is a supply-chain consideration, but the source shows no concrete malicious behavior.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 90.0%
- **Started:** 2026-09-07T13:44:02.331Z

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 confirmed malicious attack surface was established. Network download and process execution are explicit CLI functionality, not install-time behavior.

- **Trigger:** The user runs an rpa-legacy command such as debug.

- **Impact:** The invoked tool can run the downloaded legacy CLI with user-supplied project inputs.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-07T13:45:12.332Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Download, cache, extract, and execute the UiPath legacy CLI.

- **Rationale:** The package is a user-invoked legacy UiPath CLI wrapper with no lifecycle execution. Its remote binary retrieval is a supply-chain consideration, but the source shows no concrete malicious behavior.

- **Files touched:** .uipath/.cache/rpa-legacy-tool

- **Network endpoints:** pkgs.dev.azure.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exposes a command-line entry point., A user-invoked command downloads and extracts a UiPath legacy CLI archive, then runs it., A bundled browser-opening helper can spawn an operating-system command.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., The legacy binary download occurs inside command handlers after explicit CLI invocation., The download source is a UiPath Azure DevOps feed and the cache path is package-specific., No self-dependency, credential exfiltration path, destructive action, or reviewer-directed text was found.
