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. Source inspection found no concrete malicious chain, but the package exposes an AI-assisted Kubernetes auto-remediation capability with destructive operational effects. Its install path is inert and its network/telemetry behavior is package-aligned. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 88.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-11T17:38:47.434Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-11T17:40:09.998Z - **Download time:** 252 ms - **Static scan time:** 482 ms - **AI review time:** 81829 ms - **Total time:** 82564 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:** The user-invoked watch/agent modes monitor a Kubernetes cluster and can automatically apply limited remediation. Every CLI invocation also sends one first-run telemetry event containing a generated machine ID and platform metadata. - **Trigger:** User runs kubeagent watch, kubeagent agent, or any kubeagent CLI command. - **Impact:** Authorized Kubernetes workloads may be restarted or modified; telemetry identifies a machine pseudonymously. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/agent.js, dist/orchestrator.js, dist/diagnoser/tools.js, dist/kubectl.js, dist/telemetry.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-11T17:40:09.998Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Kubernetes kubectl remediation plus package-aligned telemetry - **Rationale:** Source inspection found no concrete malicious chain, but the package exposes an AI-assisted Kubernetes auto-remediation capability with destructive operational effects. Its install path is inert and its network/telemetry behavior is package-aligned. - **Files touched:** ~/.kubeagent/.machine-id, ~/.kubeagent/.telemetry-sent, ~/.kubeagent/config.yaml, ~/.kubeagent/auth.json - **Network endpoints:** https://api.kubeagent.net/telemetry, https://api.kubeagent.net ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 88.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** dist/agent.js enables auto-fix by default in headless agent mode., dist/diagnoser/tools.js can delete pods, restart deployments, scale deployments, and change resources., dist/orchestrator.js auto-approves configured safe actions; defaults include pod restart and rollout restart., dist/telemetry.js posts a persistent machine ID and platform metadata on CLI invocation. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., dist/kubectl.js uses execFile with argument arrays, not a shell., dist/diagnoser/tools.js validates Kubernetes names and resource quantities., dist/agent.js denies approval-gated actions in non-interactive mode., Network traffic targets the package's documented kubeagent service or user-configured notification endpoints., No eval, remote payload loading, credential harvesting, or AI-agent configuration mutation found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to kubeagent@0.1.52. - Review the evidence and your use of kubeagent@0.1.52 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.
