The default Windows path fetches it from the package vendor; environment variables can override the URL. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-11T06:35:28.046Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-11T06:37:40.992Z - **Download time:** 1524 ms - **Static scan time:** 4315 ms - **AI review time:** 127105 ms - **Total time:** 132946 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Interactive pager startup can fetch and execute an unverified native executable. The default Windows path fetches it from the package vendor; environment variables can override the URL. - **Trigger:** Interactive CLI pager launch when no local pager exists; automatic on Windows. - **Impact:** A compromised or redirected download endpoint can yield arbitrary code execution as the CLI user. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall-pager.mjs, dist/cli.js, dist/native/manifest.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-11T06:37:40.992Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** unverified remote native-binary download and execution - **Rationale:** No install-time malicious mutation or unrelated credential exfiltration was confirmed, but the runtime remote-binary execution path is a concrete critical supply-chain/RCE risk. - **Files touched:** ~/.clavue/native/clavue-pager-\-\, dist/cli.js, dist/native/manifest.json - **Network endpoints:** https://www.clavue.com/downloads/native ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** dist/cli.js downloads a native pager from a configurable remote URL., The downloaded file is saved under the user config directory and chmodded executable., dist/cli.js then launches that binary via child\_process.spawn., No hash/signature validation is performed before execution., package.json invokes postinstall, though its script only chmods bundled pager files. - **Evidence against:** postinstall script performs no network request or foreign agent-config mutation., Provider credentials are used for configured API-provider requests, not shown harvested for unrelated exfiltration., Remote native download is activated on interactive pager use (automatically on Windows), not during install. ## Public findings ### 1.
