The bridge sends user-submitted images to its fixed GLM API only when image conversion is requested. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-16T14:46:58.907Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-16T14:49:59.750Z - **Download time:** 252 ms - **Static scan time:** 713 ms - **AI review time:** 179877 ms - **Total time:** 180843 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** npm postinstall deploys this package's DSH preset and vision-bridge into the user's DSH profile. The bridge sends user-submitted images to its fixed GLM API only when image conversion is requested. - **Trigger:** npm installation; later DSH image submission - **Impact:** Modifies the DSH extension configuration and can transmit submitted images to the configured vision provider. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install-lib.js, bridge/index.js, bridge/client.js, preset/plugins/kix-guards.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-16T14:49:59.750Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** first-party DSH extension installation and user-triggered image-description request - **Rationale:** This is a real install-time agent-extension control-surface mutation, so it warrants a warning under policy. The observed network and credential use are aligned with the documented user-triggered vision feature, not a concrete malicious chain. - **Files touched:** $DSH\_HOME/.agent-presets/kixparadigm-en, $DSH\_HOME/profiles/web/plugins/dsh-vision-bridge, $DSH\_HOME/profiles/web/node\_modules/dsh-vision-bridge, $DSH\_HOME/profiles/web/cordis.patch.yml, $DSH\_HOME/.credentials.yaml - **Network endpoints:** https://open.bigmodel.cn/api/coding/paas/v4/chat/completions ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** postinstall automatically invokes the installer., Installer copies a preset into $DSH\_HOME/.agent-presets., Installer installs a web plugin and writes a cordis loader patch. - **Evidence against:** No remote code loading, eval, or arbitrary shell execution found., The only external request is image description to a fixed GLM endpoint after image submission., Credential access is limited to the API key needed for that image request., Guard child-process use is fixed-argument git inspection. ## Public findings ### 1.
