The artifact also exposes a bundled Uber session-cookie value, though inspected code does not exfiltrate it. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-09T18:12:09.309Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-09T18:13:18.131Z - **Download time:** 501 ms - **Static scan time:** 481 ms - **AI review time:** 67838 ms - **Total time:** 68822 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation unconditionally creates Desktop launchers and may compile/use a bundled macOS helper. The artifact also exposes a bundled Uber session-cookie value, though inspected code does not exfiltrate it. - **Trigger:** npm install; later explicit scraper or scheduler actions - **Impact:** Unwanted Desktop changes and potential unauthorized use of the bundled Uber session credential. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, utils/shortcut-maker.js, services/uber/.env, services/uber/auth.js, services/uber/fetcher.js, utils/paths.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-09T18:13:18.131Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** install-time Desktop mutation and bundled credential exposure - **Rationale:** Source establishes a real credential-exposure and unwanted install-time mutation risk, but not a concrete malicious exfiltration or payload-execution chain. Warn rather than block. - **Files touched:** package.json, utils/env-check.js, utils/shortcut-maker.js, assets/set\_icon, services/uber/.env, services/uber/auth.js, services/uber/fetcher.js, utils/paths.js, services/scheduler/cron-runner.js, services/scheduler/service-runner.js, services/base/ImapService.js, services/email/index.js, index.js, electron/main.js - **Network endpoints:** https://riders.uber.com/, https://www.aliexpress.com/, https://www.amazon.de/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** services/uber/.env ships an 8.4KB COOKIE value, postinstall runs utils/shortcut-maker.js, postinstall writes Desktop launchers and compiles assets/set\_icon, utils/paths.js persists browser profiles and invoice data - **Evidence against:** No code sends cookies, IMAP credentials, or files to a third-party endpoint, Observed runtime endpoints are Uber, AliExpress, Amazon, and user-configured IMAP, Scheduler and updater require explicit CLI/GUI selection, No eval, remote payload loader, or AI-agent control-surface writes found ## Public findings ### 1.
