Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse - **Selected version:** 1.8.5 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. 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 unauthenticated file-operation API is exposed on all network interfaces, creating a serious risk of remote workspace disclosure or modification. This is a vulnerability in the agent server's network exposure, so the package should be warned on rather than blocked as malicious. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-03T16:51:51.025Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-03T16:52:56.946Z - **Download time:** 520 ms - **Static scan time:** 287 ms - **AI review time:** 65113 ms - **Total time:** 65921 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 agent server exposes unauthenticated workspace file operations to network interfaces. - **Trigger:** A user runs the chat command, which starts the server automatically, or explicitly starts the server. - **Impact:** A reachable network client could read project files or tamper with workspace contents. - **Evidence paths:** packages/coda-agent-server/main.js, generator/chat/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T16:52:56.946Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The server binds to 0.0.0.0 and accepts MCP execute requests that can read or write workspace files without authentication. - **Rationale:** The unauthenticated file-operation API is exposed on all network interfaces, creating a serious risk of remote workspace disclosure or modification. This is a vulnerability in the agent server's network exposure, so the package should be warned on rather than blocked as malicious. - **Files touched:** Workspace paths selected through MCP tool arguments - **Network endpoints:** 0.0.0.0:10086, /api/mcp/execute ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The agent server listens on 0.0.0.0, exposing it on all network interfaces., The server exposes POST /api/mcp/execute without an authentication guard in the controller., The endpoint can read and write files in the server's current working directory. - **Evidence against:** The CLI is described as a local AI coding assistant, and chat starts the companion server after the user invokes the chat command., The file tools are intended for workspace management and include a workspace path boundary check. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to coda-cli@1.8.5. - Review the evidence and your use of coda-cli@1.8.5 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.
