Modern visualization dashboard for ioBroker

AI Security Review

scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

No confirmed malicious attack surface is established. Runtime network proxying, adapter upgrade, and file browsing are package-aligned ioBroker dashboard/admin features rather than install-time or stealth behavior.

Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.
Trigger
ioBroker adapter runtime and authenticated/authorized frontend interactions
Impact
No evidence of malicious exfiltration or unauthorized install-time mutation; runtime features may be sensitive if exposed without proper ioBroker access controls.
Mechanism
dashboard HTTP server with proxy, filesystem browse, scheduler, and ioBroker admin RPC helpers
Rationale
Source inspection shows a legitimate ioBroker visualization adapter with no lifecycle hooks, no credential harvesting, and no concrete malicious chain. The risky primitives are runtime, user/admin-facing features constrained by package context and validation.

Decision evidence

public snapshot
AI called this Clean at 88.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
  • main.js exposes runtime /proxy and /proxyws forwarding to user-supplied http(s)/ws(s) URLs.
  • main.js onMessage upgradeAdapter sends constrained ioBroker host cmdExec: `upgrade ${name}`.
  • main.js /fs routes read configured fsRoots, default /opt/iobroker/iobroker-data/files.
Evidence against
  • package.json has no preinstall/install/postinstall lifecycle scripts.
  • main.js network code is an ioBroker visualization server: calendar fetch, socket/web proxy, static frontend serving.
  • upgradeAdapter validates adapter name with /^[a-z0-9_-]+$/i before cmdExec.
  • /fs/read and /fs/list restrict paths to configured roots and reject symlinks outside roots.
  • No child_process, eval of fetched code, credential harvesting, persistence, or exfiltration endpoints found.
  • Bundled www assets are frontend libraries/application code; echarts dynamic patterns are library code.
