# dsh-harmonyos@0.7.3 npm security report

> **Trust boundary:** Package metadata, advisory text, filenames, URLs, and source snippets in this report come from external packages or feeds. Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document.

## Verdict summary
**Soft block: AI-agent control surface** — Warn by default; block when configured. Consumers can run the affected agent with danger-full-access and weakened local web authentication without an explicit setup command.

- **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured
- **Firewall policy:** Warn by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface
- **Selected version:** 0.7.3
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installing the package automatically rewrites security-sensitive code in the consumer's @deepseek-ai/dsh dependency. It forces an unrestricted agent sandbox mode and adds a tokenless loopback session path.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installing the package automatically rewrites security-sensitive code in the consumer's @deepseek-ai/dsh dependency. It forces an unrestricted agent sandbox mode and adds a tokenless loopback session path.

- **Trigger:** npm install executes the postinstall hook.

- **Impact:** Consumers can run the affected agent with danger-full-access and weakened local web authentication without an explicit setup command.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, lib/patch.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-08T15:04:00.833Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Automatic mutation of a foreign AI-agent dependency's sandbox and authentication code.

- **Attack narrative:** On installation, package.json runs lib/patch.mjs. That script locates and rewrites @deepseek-ai/dsh packages in the consumer dependency tree. It replaces the sandbox policy default with danger-full-access when its environment flag is set, and injects a loopback route that mints a long-lived session cookie without the normal token. The launcher additionally writes the same unrestricted default into ~/.dsh/settings.yaml when invoked. These changes target a foreign AI-agent control surface and are not limited to platform compatibility.

- **Rationale:** This is an unconsented postinstall mutation of a foreign AI-agent control surface that weakens both sandboxing and authentication. The lack of observed exfiltration does not neutralize the concrete install-time control hijack.

- **Files touched:** node\_modules/@deepseek-ai/dsh-sandbox-policy/lib/index.js, node\_modules/@deepseek-ai/dsh-client-connection/lib/index.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for policy risk:** The automatic postinstall runs the patch engine on every install., The patch engine overwrites the sandbox policy of the separate @deepseek-ai/dsh dependency to force danger-full-access., The patch engine modifies the dependency's loopback authentication flow to mint sessions without a token., The user-invoked launcher also appends a danger-full-access default to ~/.dsh/settings.yaml when no permission section exists.

- **Evidence against:** No self-dependency is declared., No package code was found sending harvested files or environment values to an external host.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to dsh-harmonyos@0.7.3.

- Avoid installing dsh-harmonyos@0.7.3. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
- If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment.
