# coda-cli@1.8.6 npm security report

## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 12 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Unknown
- **Selected version:** 1.8.6
- **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 optional agent server binds to all interfaces and exposes chat-driven file tools. A flawed path-prefix check can allow access to sibling paths, so this is a security vulnerability warranting a warning, though it is not evidence of malicious intent.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-04T03:17:42.105Z

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:** Starting the agent server exposes an unauthenticated chat service on all interfaces; its path check may allow file access outside the workspace.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the CLI’s agent server start command, then a network-accessible client sends a chat request.

- **Impact:** A reachable client may read or overwrite files in sibling directories accessible to the server process.

- **Evidence paths:** packages/coda-agent-server/main.js, bin/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T03:19:14.686Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The server binds to 0.0.0.0. Chat requests can invoke file tools. The path guard uses a string-prefix check that can accept a sibling path whose name begins with the workspace path.

- **Rationale:** The optional agent server binds to all interfaces and exposes chat-driven file tools. A flawed path-prefix check can allow access to sibling paths, so this is a security vulnerability warranting a warning, though it is not evidence of malicious intent.

- **Files touched:** packages/coda-agent-server/main.js, ../\<sibling path\>

- **Network endpoints:** 0.0.0.0:10086, /api/chat/completions

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The agent server binds to 0.0.0.0, making it reachable on all network interfaces when started., Its path guard checks a resolved path with startsWith(root), which can accept a sibling path sharing the workspace path prefix., The chat endpoint accepts a prompt and passes it to the agent service; the server exposes read and write file tools that resolve user-supplied paths., The server requires an explicit start command, so this exposure occurs when a user starts the agent server.

- **Evidence against:** The server’s file tools are presented as workspace management features for the local AI agent., The package has no install lifecycle scripts.
