Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The scanner’s env/network/child-process combination maps to a documented, explicitly invoked API-proxy CLI. No lifecycle execution, covert credential harvesting, foreign agent-control mutation, or stealth payload execution was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-08T11:13:09.693Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-08T11:14:00.485Z - **Download time:** 511 ms - **Static scan time:** 1750 ms - **AI review time:** 48530 ms - **Total time:** 50792 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 unconsented install-time or import-time malicious behavior was found. Explicit sidecar setup can intentionally modify a selected Next.js project and route separately approved outbound origins through APIblaze. - **Trigger:** User runs \`apiblaze init\` or \`apiblaze sidecar setup\`, then enables/registers the sidecar and approves an origin. - **Impact:** Approved traffic and its relevant request headers may be sent through the configured APIblaze proxy; this is disclosed package functionality, not covert exfiltration. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/index.js, dist/sidecar/index.js, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-08T11:14:00.485Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** User-invoked API proxy sidecar setup and approved-origin fetch routing. - **Rationale:** The scanner’s env/network/child-process combination maps to a documented, explicitly invoked API-proxy CLI. No lifecycle execution, covert credential harvesting, foreign agent-control mutation, or stealth payload execution was found. - **Files touched:** ~/.apiblaze/credentials.json, ~/.apiblaze/llm.json, .env.local, .gitignore, instrumentation.ts, src/instrumentation.ts, app/abz-inspector/page.tsx, pages/abz-inspector.tsx - **Network endpoints:** https://dashboard.apiblaze.com, https://api.apiblaze.com, https://sidecar.abz.run, https://auth.apiblaze.com, https://apikeys.apiblaze.com, https://iam.apiblaze.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** dist/index.js: explicit \`init\`/\`sidecar setup\` writes Next.js instrumentation and \`.env.local\`, then may invoke the chosen package manager., dist/sidecar/index.js: registered sidecar wraps global fetch and forwards approved origins with its API key. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall/install/postinstall hook; only prepublishOnly., Setup mutations are reached only by explicit \`apiblaze init\` or \`apiblaze sidecar setup\` commands., Sidecar leaves unapproved, local, and denylisted origins direct; approval is a separate CLI command., Credentials are stored in package-owned ~/.apiblaze files with mode 0600., Network hosts and bearer/API-key use implement the documented API proxy, login, and sidecar functions. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to apiblaze@0.20.1. - Review the evidence and your use of apiblaze@0.20.1 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
