Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 14 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:** 0.9.65 - **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 new hook path can silently replace the installed package with the latest release without asking the user. The updater targets codiedev through the configured npm registry and shows no data theft, so this warrants a warning rather than a malicious verdict. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 86.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T21:39:35.810Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T21:40:22.917Z - **Download time:** 777 ms - **Static scan time:** 1840 ms - **AI review time:** 44490 ms - **Total time:** 47107 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:** A hook-triggered background updater silently replaces the installed codiedev package with a newer release. - **Trigger:** A configured harness hook runs; unless disabled or skipped, it checks at most once per day. - **Impact:** The package can change executable code between hook invocations without the user approving the update. - **Evidence paths:** dist/hook.js, dist/selfUpdate.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T21:40:22.917Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** A detached child checks the latest codiedev version at the configured npm registry and runs npm, pnpm, or bun to install that version without prompting. - **Rationale:** The new hook path can silently replace the installed package with the latest release without asking the user. The updater targets codiedev through the configured npm registry and shows no data theft, so this warrants a warning rather than a malicious verdict. - **Files touched:** dist/hook.js, dist/selfUpdate.js, codiedevStateDir()/.self-update.json, the managed codiedev installation - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org (default; registry can be overridden through npm\_config\_registry or NPM\_CONFIG\_REGISTRY) ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** A hook invocation starts the self-update check, except immediately after hook migration., The check can spawn a detached child once per day; environment variables can disable it., The child fetches the latest codiedev version and silently invokes a package manager to install it, replacing the running package without a prompt. - **Evidence against:** The updater targets codiedev itself through the configured npm registry, defaulting to registry.npmjs.org., The updater has explicit opt-out environment variables and skips CI and containers., The reviewed updater path contains no transfer of project data or credentials. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to codiedev@0.9.65. - Review the evidence and your use of codiedev@0.9.65 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.
