Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 15 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:** 0.3.511 - **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: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The manifest has no install lifecycle hooks, and the inspected agent configuration code does not show an attack. Because the obfuscated main entrypoint could not be fully reviewed, the package requires manual review. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 78.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-16T03:04:33.351Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-16T03:06:02.375Z - **Download time:** 9998 ms - **Static scan time:** 1509 ms - **AI review time:** 77516 ms - **Total time:** 89024 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:** The package’s declared entrypoint is a large, obfuscated bundle whose behavior could not be fully resolved by static inspection. No concrete attack was confirmed. - **Trigger:** A consumer invokes or imports the package entrypoint. - **Impact:** The unresolved behavior leaves potential effects on consumer data or agent configuration unknown. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.cjs, dist/mcp.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T03:06:02.375Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Obfuscated code in the main bundle prevents tracing all behavior and callers within the available inspection bounds. - **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hooks, and the inspected agent configuration code does not show an attack. Because the obfuscated main entrypoint could not be fully reviewed, the package requires manual review. - **Files touched:** dist/index.cjs, dist/mcp.cjs ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 78.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **AI review observations:** The manifest names dist/index.cjs as the package entrypoint; inspection found an obfuscated bootstrap, and the file exceeded the available source inspection limit., The indicated MCP code also uses obfuscated identifiers, leaving some agent integration behavior difficult to trace. - **Evidence against:** The manifest contains no lifecycle scripts., The inspected MCP code maps agent platforms to local configuration directories; this alone does not establish an attack. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @whalent/agent-core@0.3.511. - Review the evidence and your use of @whalent/agent-core@0.3.511 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.
