Login commands provide user-entered API keys to that unpinned code. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-10T04:16:52.367Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-10T04:17:26.056Z - **Download time:** 253 ms - **Static scan time:** 127 ms - **AI review time:** 33308 ms - **Total time:** 33689 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Explicit CLI commands retrieve mutable remote code and execute it locally. Login commands provide user-entered API keys to that unpinned code. - **Trigger:** User runs ai login or ai agents startAllOn/startVectorDb. - **Impact:** A changed remote repository could execute arbitrary code and receive supplied API keys. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, handlers/github.js, handlers/ollamacloud.js, handlers/agents.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-10T04:17:26.056Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote payload download followed by local script/proxy execution. - **Rationale:** This is a user-invoked, unpinned remote-code carrier with credential exposure risk, but it has no install-time execution or packaged evidence of concrete malicious behavior. Warn rather than block. - **Files touched:** handlers/github.js, handlers/ollamacloud.js, handlers/ollamalocal.js, handlers/huggingface.js, handlers/deepseek.js, handlers/sarvam.js, handlers/agents.js - **Network endpoints:** https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devashish234073/cloud-pc-templates-marketplace/refs/heads/main, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devashish234073/cloud-pc-templates-marketplace/main, https://github.com/devashish234073/cloud-pc-templates-marketplace.git ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** handlers/github.js downloads mutable GitHub-main files without integrity checks., handlers/ollamacloud.js prompts for an API key then executes the downloaded proxy with it as argv., handlers/agents.js downloads and executes remote Bash/Node scripts and can start a Docker image., Fallback path runs git clone/pull into the current working directory. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., index.js invokes these operations only for explicit ai login/agents commands., No packaged source harvests credentials or sends command output to an attacker endpoint., No confirmed malicious payload is included in this archive. ## Public findings ### 1.
