Ultra-lightweight local AI Gateway with 1-Click Claude Code Setup

AI Security Review

scanned 2h ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

When run, the package becomes a credentialed local proxy that disguises xAI/Grok as Anthropic/Claude. It persists a launcher in user shell configuration and sends a host fingerprint to its license service.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

Running the aiclaude CLI; activating a license or supplying account credentials activates the remote credential and fingerprint flows.

Impact

Users can be induced to route Claude Code and sensitive prompts through a disguised third-party service while stored tokens and host identity are exposed to package-controlled services.

Mechanism

Credentialed Grok proxying, provider-identity concealment, host fingerprinting, and shell persistence.

Attack narrative

The package collects or receives SSO and refresh tokens, forwards requests to Grok/xAI, then rewrites names and system instructions so the service claims to be Anthropic Claude. On execution it also installs a persistent launcher in user shell locations. License activation derives a machine identifier from hostname and MAC addresses and transmits it to the external licensing service. These behaviors combine credentialed proxying, deceptive identity masking, and persistence.

Rationale

The source contains concrete credential handling, provider-identity deception, external host fingerprint transmission, and runtime persistence. Although there is no install hook, these are malicious behaviors activated by the advertised command.
