AI Security Review

scanned 26d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The package is a self-hosted agent router whose attach install command deliberately writes user-wide Claude Code hooks that pipe events to a localhost daemon. That is an explicit agent control-surface change, while the postinstall hook only rebuilds a native SQLite binding and does not show install-time hijack or secret theft.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

A user runs the attach install CLI command.

Impact

Later Claude Code sessions on that user account send hook payloads to the local daemon until the hooks are removed. Install itself does not change agent settings or export credentials.

Mechanism

The command patches hooks in ~/.claude/settings.json with curl commands that POST JSON to http://127.0.0.1 on the configured daemon port.

AI rationale

dist/chunk-FM2GGPSD.js~/.claude/settings.json

Network endpoints1

127.0.0.1

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 74.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The attach install command rewrites ~/.claude/settings.json so Claude Code hooks apply to every session on the machine.
Installed hooks are shell commands that POST hook input to http://127.0.0.1 on SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, Stop, SessionEnd, and a PreToolUse guard.
The npm postinstall script only rebuilds better-sqlite3 on a local ABI mismatch and does not write agent settings.

Evidence against

Hook installation is an explicit CLI subcommand, not a preinstall, install, or postinstall action.
Hook targets are the local daemon port, and the writer refuses to overwrite settings that are not valid JSON.
Claude and OpenClaw OAuth tokens are used as credentials for https://api.anthropic.com, their intended service.
The package does not depend on its own name to pull another lifecycle-enabled release.
