Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Inspected source shows a narrow native-helper permission fix and user-invoked login and host behavior. The flagged subprocess and network uses are consistent with local port inspection and LinkShell authentication and relay functionality; no concrete attack behavior was established. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-17T10:32:36.456Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-17T10:33:22.207Z - **Download time:** 1809 ms - **Static scan time:** 1472 ms - **AI review time:** 42469 ms - **Total time:** 45751 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:** No attack was identified in the inspected source. The flagged lifecycle, login, port inspection, and gateway behaviors have package-related functionality and no confirmed malicious transfer or mutation. - **Trigger:** The postinstall hook runs during installation; the login and host behaviors require user-invoked commands. - **Impact:** No confirmed harmful effect was established from the inspected source. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-17T10:33:22.207Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The install script adjusts node-pty helper permissions, login uses a loopback callback and the LinkShell authentication service, and the host restricts account-token forwarding to the official gateway. - **Rationale:** Inspected source shows a narrow native-helper permission fix and user-invoked login and host behavior. The flagged subprocess and network uses are consistent with local port inspection and LinkShell authentication and relay functionality; no concrete attack behavior was established. - **Network endpoints:** https://itool.tech/en/auth/linkshell, wss://gateway.itool.tech ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The postinstall hook runs a script that only adjusts permissions on node-pty helper binaries., Login runs only when the user invokes the login command; its callback server binds to loopback and the browser is directed to LinkShell’s login page., Login sends the supplied access token to the configured Supabase authentication service to fetch account details, then saves tokens locally with restrictive file permissions., The host forwards an account token only when the configured gateway matches the official LinkShell gateway., The flagged port inspection uses platform tools to identify listening services and does not show credential collection or external transmission., The gateway source starts an HTTP server to handle relay and web requests; the inspected code does not establish an attack. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to linkshell-cli@0.10.42. - Review the evidence and your use of linkshell-cli@0.10.42 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.
