Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The inspected runtime code and manifest show no confirmed attack behavior. The compressed install-state artifact could not be inspected, so its role cannot be fully resolved and the package needs manual review. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 89.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-15T13:51:21.556Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-15T13:52:30.467Z - **Download time:** 765 ms - **Static scan time:** 722 ms - **AI review time:** 67422 ms - **Total time:** 68911 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:** No concrete attack was identified in the inspected package source. The compressed Yarn install-state artifact remains unresolved because offline analysis could not inspect it. - **Trigger:** No install lifecycle hook is declared; the unresolved artifact’s behavior could not be determined. - **Impact:** No attack impact is confirmed; the unresolved artifact prevents a clean verdict. - **Evidence paths:** .yarn/install-state.gz, .lpm-inspection-Hexaip/0-562eb04d6020.txt, .yarn/releases/yarn-4.12.0.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T13:52:30.467Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Yarn source identifies \`.yarn/install-state.gz\` as its install-state file, but offline inspection of that artifact failed due to a buffer-size limit. - **Rationale:** The inspected runtime code and manifest show no confirmed attack behavior. The compressed install-state artifact could not be inspected, so its role cannot be fully resolved and the package needs manual review. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 89.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **AI review observations:** The offline analysis could not inspect \`.yarn/install-state.gz\` because of a buffer-size limit; Yarn identifies that path as its install-state file., The manifest lists build, development, and test scripts, with no install lifecycle hook., The Git helper is called by the Lambda construct and adds repository metadata to Lambda tags; no attack behavior was identified in that path. - **Evidence against:** The package entrypoint re-exports library modules., The inspected Git helper reads the Git commit and remote, then uses those values to form Lambda tags. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to datadog-cdk-constructs-v2@5.3.0. - Review the evidence and your use of datadog-cdk-constructs-v2@5.3.0 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.
