- **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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Inspected the lifecycle hook and required flagged source paths. Their behavior is consistent with package setup, local host discovery, intended-service authentication, and a user-invoked upgrade; no concrete malicious chain was found.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified. The inspected network, process, and install behaviors support the package’s CLI and host functions.

- **Trigger:** Installation runs the postinstall helper; login, host, and upgrade behavior requires invoking their respective commands.

- **Impact:** No concrete malicious effect or confirmed attack surface was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T07:15:08.250Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The helper adjusts node-pty permissions, host discovery inspects local listeners, login authenticates with Supabase, and upgrade checks npm before installing an update.

- **Rationale:** Inspected the lifecycle hook and required flagged source paths. Their behavior is consistent with package setup, local host discovery, intended-service authentication, and a user-invoked upgrade; no concrete malicious chain was found.

- **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/host/src/ports.js, dist/cli/src/commands/login.js, dist/cli/src/commands/upgrade.js, dist/cli/src/commands/host.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 91.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The postinstall hook runs a package-local script; inspection showed it only fixes permissions on node-pty helper files., Host discovery uses platform tools to list listening TCP ports; inspected connection code targets loopback addresses., Login sends the received access token to the configured Supabase authentication service for user information., Upgrade checks for a new version and installs it only when the user invokes the upgrade command., The host sends its account token only when connected to LinkShell’s official gateway.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to linkshell-cli@0.10.5.

- Review the evidence and your use of linkshell-cli@0.10.5 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
