## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 15 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:** 7.12.5
- **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.

This is a conditional credential-forwarding risk: an alternate configured endpoint can receive a saved service token without recipient-specific confirmation. The default endpoint and account lookup are package-aligned, so the source supports a warning rather than a block.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-21T04:34:17.580Z

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:** During server-project setup, the CLI may send a saved Zuplo access token to the configured developer API endpoint. The default is Zuplo's developer service, but an alternate endpoint can receive the token without a separate recipient confirmation.

- **Trigger:** The user selects server-project creation in the CLI setup prompt.

- **Impact:** If the endpoint is set to another recipient, that recipient receives the saved token.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-21T04:35:24.929Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The CLI reads an access token from its local Zuplo auth file and uses it in a Bearer-authenticated account request; an environment variable can replace the default endpoint.

- **Rationale:** This is a conditional credential-forwarding risk: an alternate configured endpoint can receive a saved service token without recipient-specific confirmation. The default endpoint and account lookup are package-aligned, so the source supports a warning rather than a block.

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

- **Network endpoints:** https://dev.zuplo.com, ZUPLO\_DEVELOPER\_API\_ENDPOINT

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package exposes dist/index.js as its command-line entrypoint., The CLI reads a saved Zuplo access token and lets ZUPLO\_DEVELOPER\_API\_ENDPOINT replace the default developer service., Account lookup sends the saved token as a Bearer credential to the selected endpoint., The credential lookup is reachable during server-project setup, which the CLI presents as a user choice.

- **Evidence against:** The endpoint defaults to Zuplo's developer service, and the credential request supports the CLI's account lookup feature., The inspected source does not establish that an alternate endpoint is secretly selected or that credentials are sent there by default.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to create-zuplo-api@7.12.5.

- Review the evidence and your use of create-zuplo-api@7.12.5 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.
