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. The package installs and imports platform-specific native code for its stated cross-runtime bridge. No confirmed malicious source-level behavior or external endpoint is established. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-24T08:42:32.292Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-24T08:43:25.246Z - **Download time:** 1522 ms - **Static scan time:** 521 ms - **AI review time:** 50910 ms - **Total time:** 52954 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:** The package installs and imports platform-specific native code for its stated cross-runtime bridge. No confirmed malicious source-level behavior or external endpoint is established. - **Trigger:** npm install when no matching prebuild exists; module import loads the native addon - **Impact:** Executes bundled native code, but inspected source shows no exfiltration, persistence, or remote-payload chain. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install.js, index.js, addon/HypertubeNodejsRuntimeAddon.cpp, binding.gyp - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-24T08:43:25.246Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** local node-gyp rebuild and package-relative native-library loading - **Rationale:** The lifecycle hook is a conventional conditional native-addon build, and runtime loading is package-relative. Opaque binary artifacts are consistent with this package's declared purpose but do not establish malicious behavior from inspected source. - **Files touched:** build/Release/HypertubeNodejsRuntimeAddon.node, prebuilds/\-\/HypertubeNodejsRuntimeAddon.node, Binaries/Native/\/\/libHypertubeNodejsRuntimeNative.so ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** Install hook executes a local node-gyp availability check and rebuild only when no matching prebuild exists., Module import loads a platform-specific bundled native addon; its C++ bridge then loads a package-relative native runtime. - **Evidence against:** No source network requests, credential/environment harvesting, persistence, destructive operations, or AI-agent configuration writes found., Install script uses fixed node-gyp commands and package-relative paths only., Native loader resolves fixed exports from the bundled runtime; no remote or dynamically constructed payload source is present. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to hypertube-binaries@3.1.8. - Review the evidence and your use of hypertube-binaries@3.1.8 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.
