# kubb@5.15.0 npm security report

## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 10 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 5.15.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The command-triggered telemetry sends configured plugin options by default, and those arbitrary values could contain sensitive settings. The source supports a privacy warning, but does not establish secret theft or malicious behavior, so publishing should not be blocked.

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:** The CLI sends configured plugin options as part of usage telemetry after generation. Those arbitrary values could include sensitive settings; the inspected code does not establish that secrets are present or that the collection is malicious.

- **Trigger:** A user runs the Kubb generation command and generation reaches its telemetry reporting step.

- **Impact:** Plugin configuration values leave the user’s environment, creating a risk of unintended disclosure.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/kubb.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-6d73edd6-431e-4157-9d94-8c8f03c317a8/0/npm-linux/dist/index.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-6d73edd6-431e-4157-9d94-8c8f03c317a8/0/npm-linux/dist/run-CbX6tpqB.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-6d73edd6-431e-4157-9d94-8c8f03c317a8/0/npm-linux/dist/Telemetry-B3edcFoB.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T22:50:51.748Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The runner passes plugin options into a telemetry payload, which is posted to Kubb’s telemetry endpoint unless an opt-out environment flag is set.

- **Rationale:** The command-triggered telemetry sends configured plugin options by default, and those arbitrary values could contain sensitive settings. The source supports a privacy warning, but does not establish secret theft or malicious behavior, so publishing should not be blocked.

- **Files touched:** package.json, bin/kubb.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-6d73edd6-431e-4157-9d94-8c8f03c317a8/0/npm-linux/dist/index.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-6d73edd6-431e-4157-9d94-8c8f03c317a8/0/npm-linux/dist/run-CbX6tpqB.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-6d73edd6-431e-4157-9d94-8c8f03c317a8/0/npm-linux/dist/Telemetry-B3edcFoB.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://otlp.kubb.dev/v1/traces

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 84.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The package exposes a CLI that passes user command arguments to the CLI runner., After generation, the runner collects every configured plugin’s options for a telemetry report., The telemetry builder serializes those option values into the report payload., The report is posted to Kubb’s telemetry endpoint; only telemetry opt-out flags suppress the send., The CLI displays a telemetry notice and provides an opt-out., The package manifest lists build, start, and typecheck scripts, with no install hook.

- **Evidence against:** The inspected transfer is command-triggered telemetry to a Kubb endpoint; no credential harvesting or separate malicious behavior was identified.
