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:** 0.25.2 - **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. Source inspection found a powerful, package-aligned agent shell/network capability but no concrete malicious chain. Downgrade to warn for dangerous dual-use agent execution rather than block publication. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-18T20:10:20.378Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-18T20:12:29.349Z - **Download time:** 1029 ms - **Static scan time:** 3716 ms - **AI review time:** 124225 ms - **Total time:** 128971 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:** Eve exposes an agent sandbox that can run shell commands with a writable sandbox filesystem and unrestricted internet access. It also scaffolds package-owned extension projects on explicit CLI commands; no install-time attack surface was found. - **Trigger:** A consumer configures and runs the just-bash sandbox or explicitly invokes \`eve init\` / \`eve extension init\`. - **Impact:** A compromised or overly-permissioned agent configuration could execute commands, modify sandbox files, and reach network services. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/eve.js, dist/src/execution/sandbox/bindings/just-bash-runtime.js, dist/src/setup/scaffold/create/extension.js, dist/src/cli/commands/init-git.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-18T20:12:29.349Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** User-configured agent shell execution with sandbox filesystem and network access. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found a powerful, package-aligned agent shell/network capability but no concrete malicious chain. Downgrade to warn for dangerous dual-use agent execution rather than block publication. - **Files touched:** AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, package.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** \`dist/src/execution/sandbox/bindings/just-bash-runtime.js\` creates a filesystem-backed sandbox with full internet access., The same binding executes supplied shell commands through the sandbox's \`eval\` command., \`dist/src/setup/scaffold/create/extension.js\` generates extension packages with a \`prepare\` build script and agent instruction files. - **Evidence against:** \`package.json\` has no \`preinstall\`, \`install\`, \`postinstall\`, or \`prepare\` lifecycle hook., \`bin/eve.js\` runs only when invoked directly and its child-process use bootstraps the CLI/build path., No inspected code showed credential harvesting, hard-coded exfiltration endpoint, remote payload download, or foreign agent-config mutation., Scaffolded \`AGENTS.md\` and \`CLAUDE.md\` files are produced only by explicit project/extension initialization. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to eve@0.25.2. - Review the evidence and your use of eve@0.25.2 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.
