OpenSSF/OSV malware advisory MAL-2026-10720 identifies this version as malicious and supplies the Firewall block. LPM AI assessed this version as suspicious; the assessments disagree.

Independent AI assessment: suspicious. LPM AI assessed this version as suspicious; the assessments disagree.

OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-10720 confirms this npm version as malicious. The @vibelet/cli package ships a daemon bundle (dist/index.cjs, invoked by the \`vibelet\` bin and by \`vibelet start\`/\`restart\`/\`reset\`) that starts an HTTP+WebSocket server, spawns an interactive PTY running process.env.SHELL via node-pty, and pipes network-received 'input' and 'resize' messages into that PTY. By default the CLI provisions a public Cloudflare tunnel (trycloudflare.com, using the bundled \`cloudflared\`...

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** A user-invoked CLI installs and starts a persistent local daemon, optionally exposing it through a Cloudflare Tunnel. It can launch and relay Claude/Codex terminal-agent sessions; this is a high-risk remote-control capability but is package-aligned and not install-time.

- **Trigger:** User runs \`vibelet\`, \`vibelet start\`, \`vibelet claude\`, or \`vibelet codex\`.

- **Impact:** A paired remote client may control coding-agent sessions on the host.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, README.md, dist/vibelet.mjs, dist/index.cjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-16T19:00:34.545Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Persistent daemon plus tunneled remote terminal-agent control

- **Rationale:** The package is not proven malicious, but its obfuscated daemon, persistence, default remote tunnel, and remote coding-agent control create substantial user-host risk. Flag as a warning rather than block because activation is user-invoked and no concrete malicious chain was found.

- **Files touched:** package.json, dist/vibelet.mjs, dist/index.cjs, ~/.vibelet/runtime/current/dist/index.cjs, ~/.vibelet/relay.json, ~/.vibelet/tunnel.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 87.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI warning decision:** \`dist/index.cjs\` is heavily obfuscated, limiting auditability of the daemon., \`dist/vibelet.mjs\` starts persistent launchd/systemd/detached daemon backends after a user invokes the CLI., \`dist/vibelet.mjs\` enables Cloudflare Tunnel remote access by default for start-like commands., \`dist/vibelet.mjs\` explicitly launches Claude/Codex integrations and creates temporary Claude hook settings.

- **Evidence against:** \`package.json\` contains no preinstall, install, postinstall, or prepare lifecycle hook., The executable is only the user-invoked \`vibelet\` bin entrypoint., CLI persistence and configuration target \`~/.vibelet\`; no foreign AI-agent configuration write was confirmed., No hardcoded credential-exfiltration endpoint or secret-harvesting path was confirmed in inspected sources.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @vibelet/cli@1.2.154.

- Avoid installing @vibelet/cli@1.2.154. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
- If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment.
