Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The widget automatically sends visitor measurement events when consent is absent or refused, as long as Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control are not set. This conflicts with the documented consent behavior, so the package warrants a warning for runtime telemetry. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-31T10:52:33.665Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-31T10:53:50.505Z - **Download time:** 1145 ms - **Static scan time:** 7278 ms - **AI review time:** 68415 ms - **Total time:** 76840 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:** The embedded widget sends visitor measurement events to the package’s API even before consent or after refusal, unless the browser signals Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control. - **Trigger:** The application initializes the widget; measurement listeners start automatically when the browser does not signal Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control. - **Impact:** Visitor behavior and page context may be collected despite the documented consent flow or a refusal. The inspected field-description code omits entered field values. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.cjs, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-31T10:53:50.505Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The measurement path is gated by browser privacy signals rather than the stored consent choice. It queues page, navigation, interaction, form, field, and other whitelisted events for transmission to the first-party API. - **Rationale:** The widget automatically sends visitor measurement events when consent is absent or refused, as long as Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control are not set. This conflicts with the documented consent behavior, so the package warrants a warning for runtime telemetry. - **Files touched:** dist/index.cjs, README.md - **Network endpoints:** https://api.arcyai.com/api/v1/sdk/measurement, https://api.arcyai.com/api/v1/sdk/telemetry ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** Measurement is enabled unless the browser signals Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control; this check does not consult the visitor’s consent choice., When consent is absent, capture sends events through a separate measurement transport for a whitelist that includes page, navigation, click, form, and field events., Startup binds measurement listeners and records a page-load event before consent when measurement is allowed., The README says one consent covers ARCY’s collection and that refusing stops collection, which conflicts with the pre-consent measurement path., The measurement and telemetry transports use the package’s first-party api.arcyai.com endpoints., Field descriptions include validity and a textless form fingerprint, not the field’s entered value. - **Evidence against:** The README documents a consent API and says refusal stops collection., The identified endpoints belong to arcyai.com, and the inspected field-description code does not include entered field values. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to arcy.js@0.7.0. - Review the evidence and your use of arcy.js@0.7.0 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.
