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 CLI has an active, default-on telemetry path that can transmit API request and response bodies on errors, creating a conditional data exposure risk. The inspected code does not establish intentional secret theft or unrelated-recipient exfiltration, so this warrants a warning rather than a block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 89.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-08T21:17:47.046Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-08T21:18:29.442Z - **Download time:** 253 ms - **Static scan time:** 49 ms - **AI review time:** 42093 ms - **Total time:** 42396 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:** Default-on error telemetry sends API request and response bodies to PostHog, creating a conditional exposure risk if those bodies contain sensitive values. - **Trigger:** The CLI encounters an uncaught or captured error while telemetry is enabled. - **Impact:** Sensitive values present in those bodies could be disclosed to the telemetry service. - **Evidence paths:** dist/cli/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T21:18:29.442Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The error reporter includes API request and response bodies in telemetry properties and captures the error through its PostHog client. - **Rationale:** The CLI has an active, default-on telemetry path that can transmit API request and response bodies on errors, creating a conditional data exposure risk. The inspected code does not establish intentional secret theft or unrelated-recipient exfiltration, so this warrants a warning rather than a block. - **Network endpoints:** https://us.i.posthog.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 89.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The CLI sends telemetry to PostHog unless BASE44\_DISABLE\_TELEMETRY is set to "1"., On API errors, telemetry properties include request and response bodies, which may contain sensitive data., The executable entrypoint runs the CLI; the manifest has no install lifecycle hooks. - **Evidence against:** The inspected code reports errors and command context; it does not establish that secrets are deliberately collected., Telemetry is sent to the configured PostHog service, not an unrelated operator endpoint. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to base44@0.1.18. - Review the evidence and your use of base44@0.1.18 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.
