AI Security Review

scanned 25d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The package exposes an explicit, product-aligned command that installs persistent Claude Code hooks forwarding prompts to a loopback daemon. That is a user-invoked agent control-surface change, not an unconsented install hook or a hidden remote payload.

Static reason

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

Trigger

User runs the attach install CLI command.

Impact

Later Claude Code sessions automatically send prompts and session events to the local daemon until the user runs uninstall. No remote recipient or install-time control-surface write was found.

Mechanism

The command merges SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, Stop, SessionEnd, and optional PreToolUse command hooks into ~/.claude/settings.json. Each hook curls JSON stdin to http://127.0.0.1 on the configured port.

AI rationale

Evidence

dist/chunk-7OWXFLAM.js~/.claude/settings.json

Network endpoints1

127.0.0.1

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Suspicious at 78.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.

Evidence for warning

The attach install subcommand writes Claude Code command hooks into ~/.claude/settings.json only when the user runs that command.
Those hooks send session and prompt stdin with curl to http://127.0.0.1 on the local daemon port, including UserPromptSubmit.
npm postinstall only rebuilds better-sqlite3 on an ABI mismatch and does not edit agent settings.

Evidence against

There is no preinstall hook, and postinstall does not write Claude, Cursor, or other agent config.
Hook traffic stays on loopback and the install command prints the events and port.
The settings writer is reached from the explicit attach install action, not from package import or install.
