Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Lifecycle scripts only copy sources at pack time, and the relay client starts only when the host supplies a token. Disk collection, registration, and the upstream allowlist match that remote-access plugin rather than a separate attack chain. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-26T03:32:43.170Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-26T03:33:58.602Z - **Download time:** 513 ms - **Static scan time:** 215 ms - **AI review time:** 74703 ms - **Total time:** 75432 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 install-time or hidden attack was identified. The package is a user-loaded remote-access plugin that connects only after a token is configured. - **Trigger:** A host calls apply() with a token and optional relay URL. - **Impact:** Effects stay inside the configured remote-access session; no unconsented install mutation or covert recipient was found. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-26T03:33:58.602Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The agent opens a websocket to that relay, registers, reports host inventory, and proxies allowlisted local upstreams. - **Rationale:** Lifecycle scripts only copy sources at pack time, and the relay client starts only when the host supplies a token. Disk collection, registration, and the upstream allowlist match that remote-access plugin rather than a separate attack chain. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json only defines prepack and prepare, both running scripts/prepack.mjs; there is no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook and no self-dependency., apply() returns without connecting unless the caller supplies a token; the fallback relay is the placeholder wss://relay.example.com/agent., collectDisks runs df -kPT only to fill the system-info payload sent to that configured relay after registration., Service upstream hosts are accepted only for loopback, 10.144.144.0/24, or hosts listed in AGENT\_UPSTREAM\_ALLOW., The websocket open handler registers with the caller-selected relay using the supplied token. - **Evidence against:** After a token is configured, the agent proxies local dsh traffic and can read text-like artifact paths requested by the relay, which is the remote-access feature rather than a hidden install action., prepare rewrites lib copies from nearby source trees at pack time and does not run as a registry install hook. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to dshost-plugin@0.1.14. - Review the evidence and your use of dshost-plugin@0.1.14 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.
