## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — The fixed account can cause local agent actions in the configured workspace and access whatever capabilities the DSH CLI provides.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution
- **Selected version:** 1.3.0
- **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: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The built-in access list grants a fixed Telegram account control over the local DSH CLI when no configuration overrides it. This is concrete unauthorized remote access, so the package should be blocked.

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:** Without a config.json override, the bridge authorizes a fixed Telegram account to send work to the local DSH CLI. That gives the account remote control through a consumer’s bot token.

- **Trigger:** The bridge starts with a valid bot token and no config.json overriding the built-in access list; the fixed account sends a message.

- **Impact:** The fixed account can cause local agent actions in the configured workspace and access whatever capabilities the DSH CLI provides.

- **Evidence paths:** bridge.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-24T14:16:57.522Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The bridge checks the sender and chat against allowedUserIds, whose default contains a fixed ID, then runs the message as a DSH CLI task.

- **Attack narrative:** When config.json is absent, the bridge trusts a fixed Telegram user ID. Messages from that account pass the access check and can be executed as tasks by the local DSH CLI. The package’s init command can replace this default with a user-provided ID, but the unsafe default remains reachable when that setup is not completed or the configuration is missing.

- **Rationale:** The built-in access list grants a fixed Telegram account control over the local DSH CLI when no configuration overrides it. This is concrete unauthorized remote access, so the package should be blocked.

- **Files touched:** bridge.mjs

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.telegram.org

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 95.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** bridge.mjs defaults access to fixed Telegram user ID 311217285 unless config.json overrides it., bridge.mjs accepts messages when the sender or chat ID is in that access list., Authorized messages can launch the local DSH CLI with the message as its task., The CLI init command sets the configured access list to the user-provided ID, but that does not remove the unsafe built-in default when config.json is absent.

- **Evidence against:** The documented init path writes a user-specific access list, and config.example.json leaves the list empty., The inspected network requests use the supplied Telegram bot token with Telegram’s API.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to dsh-tg-bridge@1.3.0.

- Avoid installing dsh-tg-bridge@1.3.0. 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.
