Static policy retained a warning. The static scanner classified the package as malicious with confidence of at least 85%. A critical static finding has confidence of at least 90%. These conditions do not mean that the AI confirmed malicious behavior. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. No malicious attack surface was identified in the inspected sources. Flagged network and credential behavior is tied to named financial and AI service clients or caller-invoked trading functionality. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-07T07:32:41.634Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-07T07:33:46.730Z - **Download time:** 1279 ms - **Static scan time:** 5449 ms - **AI review time:** 58366 ms - **Total time:** 65096 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:** No malicious attack surface was identified in the inspected sources. Flagged network and credential behavior is tied to named financial and AI service clients or caller-invoked trading functionality. - **Trigger:** Importing the package loads entry modules; network requests require invoking service or trading functions. - **Impact:** No credential theft, persistence, destructive action, or unsolicited install-time behavior was established. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-07T07:33:46.730Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The inspected clients send their service-specific credentials to corresponding service endpoints, and the BlockRun function uses a wallet key for its payment flow. - **Rationale:** Source inspection did not substantiate the scanner's malicious classification: package.json has no install lifecycle hook, and inspected credential handling is tied to named service clients or an invoked payment function. The static flags do not establish credential redirection, malicious evaluation, or wallet theft. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Final policy explanation:** The AI recommended clean. Static policy retained a warning. The static scanner classified the package as malicious with confidence of at least 85%. A critical static finding has confidence of at least 90%. These conditions do not mean that the AI confirmed malicious behavior. - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json defines build and test scripts but no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The CommonJS entry imports library modules; the inspected excerpt shows module loading, not a credential send or install-time action., The ESM entry imports library modules; the inspected excerpt shows module loading, not a credential send or install-time action., The Polyfactual API key is obtained from a specifically named environment variable for a matching API client., The Kalshi data client uses a caller-provided or DFlow-named API key for the DFlow API., The BlockRun function requires an explicitly supplied or named wallet key for its payment flow., The archiver excerpt is a dynamic-require error helper, not evidence of malicious evaluation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to investing@0.1.173. - Review the evidence and your use of investing@0.1.173 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.
