fraim@2.0.349

FRAIM core CLI and MCP package.

AI Security Review

scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The flagged source resolves to FRAIM CLI, setup, diagnostics, metrics, and registry-learning behavior; package.json defines CLI entrypoints without lifecycle scripts. Claude metrics are enabled through setup commands and sent to a loopback receiver, while usage analytics go to the configured FRAIM service; no concrete attack behavior was established.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source

Trigger

A user runs FRAIM setup commands or starts the local MCP proxy.

Impact

The inspected behavior supports usage accounting. It did not establish prompt or tool-content export, credential theft, lifecycle mutation, or unrelated account changes.

Mechanism

Claude setup adds metrics-export settings to the user profile; the proxy reads usage metrics locally and sends limited usage analytics to its configured FRAIM service.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Clean at 88.0% confidence as Benign with high false-positive risk.

Evidence for AI clean decision

package.json exposes CLI entrypoints; inspection found no npm lifecycle hook or runtime dependency on fraim itself.
Claude telemetry settings are added by project setup commands and configure metrics export to a local receiver.
The receiver extracts token and cost metrics and binds to loopback; the token adapter reads its local snapshots.
The MCP proxy uses the configured FRAIM service endpoint and API key; usage analytics select limited tool metadata and are sent to that endpoint.
Agent setup writes FRAIM-specific skills and commands. The flagged diagnostics and runtime code handle redaction and setup state.
The remaining flagged modules implement local learning, validation, provider, and user-invoked project operations; no separate attack chain was established.

Evidence against

CLI setup enables Claude Code metrics in user-level settings without a separate telemetry consent prompt; the inspected receiver is loopback-bound and handles usage metrics.
The proxy sends usage analytics and its API key to the configured FRAIM endpoint; the default is the package-aligned FRAIM service.
