LPM AI review remains unresolved. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Trusted malware advisory block - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Malware - **Selected version:** 6.4.0 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** OpenSSF/OSV Malicious Advisory (OpenSSF/OSV) OpenSSF/OSV malware advisory MAL-2026-18364 identifies this version as malicious and supplies the Firewall block. LPM AI review remains unresolved. Independent AI assessment: manual\_review. LPM AI review remains unresolved. OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-18364 confirms this npm version as malicious. Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-28T21:32:04.758Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-28T21:33:22.620Z - **Download time:** 5054 ms - **Static scan time:** 1069 ms - **AI review time:** 71738 ms - **Total time:** 77862 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:** No attack was confirmed in the inspected source. The package ships a Windows executable launcher whose behavior remains unresolved. - **Trigger:** A user opens the bundled Windows launcher. - **Impact:** No harmful effect was verified; the launcher's behavior is unknown. - **Evidence paths:** templates/.agents/design/design-system-maker/zaip-design-system-maker.exe, templates/template-manifest.json, .lpm-inspection-BzrO7a/0-98b39bfeacf7.txt - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T21:33:22.620Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The launcher is a binary template asset; the available offline analysis could not inspect its internals. - **Rationale:** The manifest, loader, and launcher instructions show that the unresolved artifact is a user-invoked executable rather than an install-time action. Because its behavior could not be inspected, the source does not support a clean or malicious verdict. - **Files touched:** templates/.agents/design/design-system-maker/zaip-design-system-maker.exe, templates/template-manifest.json, templates/.agents/design/design-system-maker/README.md ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **AI review observations:** The template ships the design-maker executable as a binary asset, and the loader reads binary records as bytes; this does not resolve what the executable does., The instructions say users launch the Windows executable, but the trusted offline analysis could not inspect it., The inspected package manifest has no install-time lifecycle hook, so the unresolved behavior is limited to user invocation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @zaip-ai/cli@6.4.0. - Avoid installing @zaip-ai/cli@6.4.0. 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
