WayAI CLI — sync hub configuration between local files and the platform
AI Security Review
scanned 24d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source confirms that an existing session token can be forwarded to an unrestricted configured endpoint, which is a concrete credential-exposure risk. The default destination is package-aligned, and the reviewed source does not establish covert exfiltration or install-time execution.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
A user configures a non-WayAI API URL and then runs an authenticated CLI command.
Impact
If the destination is untrusted, it can receive the user's access token.
Mechanism
The login flow accepts an unrestricted --api-url value and persists it; the API client attaches its access token to requests sent to the configured destination.
AI rationale
The source confirms that an existing session token can be forwarded to an unrestricted configured endpoint, which is a concrete credential-exposure risk. The default destination is package-aligned, and the reviewed source does not establish covert exfiltration or install-time execution.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The login command accepts a caller-supplied API URL and stores it in configuration without an apparent destination restriction.
- The CLI sends its stored access token in authenticated requests to the configured API URL, so a non-WayAI endpoint can receive that token.
- The package exposes a CLI entrypoint, and the inspected manifest defines no install lifecycle hook.
Evidence against
- The default API endpoint is api.wayai.pro; the inspected login flow stores tokens in the OS keyring.
- The package's automatic skill cache refresh reads metadata from a WayAI-owned GitHub repository; the cited agent skill paths are product-specific.
