## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 12 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Manual Review
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Under Review
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 2.9.7
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Inspected source shows package-aligned sponsorship requests and no install hook. I cannot verify the required compressed Yarn state file, so the package contents are not fully resolved.

## Latest scan

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 attack surface was identified in the inspected JavaScript. The compressed Yarn state file remains unverified because it could not be read as printable source.

- **Trigger:** A caller invokes a sponsorship or fee-quote method.

- **Impact:** The inspected behavior supports the SDK's sponsorship flow; the unreadable compressed file prevents a complete package assessment.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T01:51:39.818Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The method sends encrypted key material and transaction details to the package's configured sponsorship endpoint.

- **Rationale:** Inspected source shows package-aligned sponsorship requests and no install hook. I cannot verify the required compressed Yarn state file, so the package contents are not fully resolved.

- **Files touched:** dist/contract/index.js, dist/utils/constants.js, .yarn/install-state.gz

- **Network endpoints:** https://gateway.verified.network/api/sponsor

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Manual Review

- **Confidence:** 78.0%

- **Recommended action:** manual\_review

- **Intent class:** Unknown

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **AI review observations:** package.json defines a library entrypoint and has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The contract code sends an encrypted private key and transaction data to the configured Verified Network sponsorship service during explicit sponsorship calls., The required .yarn/install-state.gz file could not be read as printable UTF-8 source, so its contents could not be verified.

- **Evidence against:** The manifest lists ethers, tslib, and viem as runtime dependencies; it does not depend on itself., The inspected sponsorship endpoint is package-aligned, and the relevant requests occur inside called contract methods.
