AI Security Review

scanned 26d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The package does not mutate Claude settings during npm install; the user-wide hook write happens only when the operator runs attach install. That explicit command still installs persistent hooks that forward session and tool events from all Claude sessions to the local daemon, which is a guarded agent-control capability.

Static reason

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

Trigger

Operator runs the attach install command (optional port, settings path, and guard flag).

Impact

Every Claude session on that machine can forward prompt and tool-hook content to the local daemon until the matching uninstall command removes the hooks.

Mechanism

The command merges command hooks into ~/.claude/settings.json. Each hook shells out to curl and posts stdin to http://127.0.0.1:<port> on attach and guard paths.

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 patches ~/.claude/settings.json so hooks apply to every Claude session on the machine.
Each installed hook runs curl and posts the hook body to http://127.0.0.1 on the configured daemon port.
The patch adds SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, Stop, and SessionEnd hooks, plus a PreToolUse guard for Bash and Write|Edit, then writes the settings file.
The settings write creates parent directories and overwrites the JSON when the merged hook set changed.

Evidence against

The npm postinstall script only tries to rebuild better-sqlite3 after an ABI mismatch and exits 0 otherwise.
Hook installation is reached from the explicit attach install command, not from the install lifecycle.
The curl destination is loopback only; the command does not send the hook body to a remote host.
Local Anthropic and Claude OAuth files are read for calls to api.anthropic.com, the token's own service.
