## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 26 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 2.75.41
- **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 pairing flow can forward an existing Claude session credential and agent state. No install-time attack was identified.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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 pairing flow can forward an existing Claude session credential and agent state. No install-time attack was identified.

- **Trigger:** A successful pair operation with a plugin authorization token starts automatic credential linking.

- **Impact:** A caller-controlled API base URL could receive an existing Claude credential during pairing.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-27T14:35:27.294Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The code extracts a local credential, places it in a JSON request, and derives its API destination from an environment override.

- **Rationale:** The active pairing path combines local credential extraction, automatic forwarding, and an unrestricted endpoint override. The observed postinstall behavior is only terminal output.

- **Files touched:** dist/index.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.codeagent-mobile.com, https://dev-api.codeagent-mobile.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for warning:** The CLI reads existing Claude credentials from local credential files and the macOS Keychain., After a successful pairing, it automatically starts credential linking when a plugin authorization token is present., The linking request includes the extracted credential and agent state in a request body., The API base URL can be replaced through CODEAM\_API\_URL, so the destination is not restricted to the package service.

- **Evidence against:** The package postinstall hook only prints usage guidance; it does not invoke the CLI setup flow.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to codeam-cli@2.75.41.

- Review the evidence and your use of codeam-cli@2.75.41 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.
