Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse - **Selected version:** 7.1.55 - **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: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Review flagged AI-agent configuration or capability changes. This remains warn-only unless evidence shows foreign-agent hijack through preinstall/install/postinstall, hidden persistence, exfiltration, remote code execution, or other concrete malicious behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-28T15:03:27.488Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-28T15:04:46.280Z - **Download time:** 503 ms - **Static scan time:** 5505 ms - **AI review time:** 72783 ms - **Total time:** 78792 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:** At runtime, the package can send a supplied image and prompt to fal.run and can expose shell-capable agent tools. These actions are not triggered by npm installation. - **Trigger:** Running and configuring the engine, then invoking an applicable agent or selfie feature. - **Impact:** A compromised or prompt-injected agent could use the package's broad runtime capabilities; no covert install-time attack was confirmed. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/main.mjs, dist/cli.mjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-28T15:04:46.280Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** User-configured AI-agent execution, external model calls, and optional runtime dependency setup. - **Rationale:** No concrete malicious install or exfiltration chain was found after source inspection. The package nevertheless provides high-impact agent capabilities and external data transfer, so it should be warned rather than blocked. - **Files touched:** dist/main.mjs, dist/cli.mjs, package.json - **Network endpoints:** https://fal.run/xai/grok-imagine-image/edit ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The user-invoked selfie tool sends a selected image and prompt to the fixed fal.run service., The runtime can create a Python virtual environment and install dependencies when its EverOS feature is enabled., The package exposes an AI-agent runtime with shell and file capabilities, increasing prompt-injection impact. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall script., The inspected network and process behavior is reached from the CLI/runtime, not package installation., No source evidence showed secret harvesting, covert exfiltration, foreign package overwrite, or automatic agent-control-surface mutation., The persistent service setup is behind the explicit engine7 service install command. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to engine7@7.1.55. - Review the evidence and your use of engine7@7.1.55 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.
