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 rewrite flow matches the package's purpose and runs from an explicit UI action, but it also silently logs session identifiers to a machine-specific path. That undisclosed local data collection warrants a warning; the source does not establish malicious exfiltration. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T09:23:13.045Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T09:24:08.721Z - **Download time:** 250 ms - **Static scan time:** 77 ms - **AI review time:** 55349 ms - **Total time:** 55676 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:** The plugin silently writes session identifiers and request metadata to a hard-coded local log file. - **Trigger:** A user clicks the rewrite control with a nonempty draft. - **Impact:** Conversation session identifiers and usage metadata may remain in a local file without the user's awareness; no external exfiltration was identified. - **Evidence paths:** lib/index.js, lib/client.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T09:24:08.721Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The host route appends log entries to C:/Users/sam15/Documents/deepseek-harness/default-workspace/.tmp/ask-cases-rewrite.log, including live session IDs and draft/context lengths. - **Rationale:** The rewrite flow matches the package's purpose and runs from an explicit UI action, but it also silently logs session identifiers to a machine-specific path. That undisclosed local data collection warrants a warning; the source does not establish malicious exfiltration. - **Files touched:** C:/Users/sam15/Documents/deepseek-harness/default-workspace/.tmp/ask-cases-rewrite.log - **Network endpoints:** /plugins/ask-cases/rewrite ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The host appends log entries to a hard-coded path under a specific user's Documents directory., On a rewrite request, the plugin logs live session IDs and whether the requested session was found., The browser triggers rewriting from its UI and sends the draft and session ID to the plugin route. - **Evidence against:** The manifest declares no lifecycle scripts., The model request uses the package's stated DeepSeek account provider, and no unrelated external collector was found., The flagged bundle contains a BOM but no bidi control characters; the browser's auto-send setting defaults to false. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to dsh-ask-cases@0.1.0. - Review the evidence and your use of dsh-ask-cases@0.1.0 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.
