## Verdict summary
**Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 20 finding(s) warrant review before installing.

- **Verdict:** Suspicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Warn
- **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Staged Payload Carrier
- **Selected version:** 0.96.0
- **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 package injects a third-party script into a console that handles and stores API keys, which creates a real unresolved credential exposure risk. The inspected source does not show the remote script's behavior or confirm a credential transfer, so a warning is warranted rather than a block.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-10-12T21:52:18.918Z

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 browser agent console loads a remote script while collecting an API key. That script runs in the page that stores the key, creating a credible but unconfirmed exposure risk.

- **Trigger:** Opening the browser console route and entering an API key.

- **Impact:** The remote script can access page data and the stored key. The source does not confirm actual credential transmission, so confirmed theft is not established.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/server-VQU6S24A.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-12T21:55:10.130Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The generated page inserts an asynchronous script from hyros-attribution-crm.vercel.app; the page also stores the API key in local browser storage and uses it for authenticated requests. The inspected package source does not establish what the remote script sends.

- **Rationale:** The package injects a third-party script into a console that handles and stores API keys, which creates a real unresolved credential exposure risk. The inspected source does not show the remote script's behavior or confirm a credential transfer, so a warning is warranted rather than a block.

- **Files touched:** dist/server-VQU6S24A.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://hyros-attribution-crm.vercel.app/api/track/sdk?token=35c27ba33dd0c6cc640f9fef415ee3dc9ead67fefe99d269be602ee269900e25

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

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

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for warning:** The server source defines an asynchronous script from hyros-attribution-crm.vercel.app and inserts it into the browser console page., The console asks users to enter an API key, stores it in browser storage, and uses it for authenticated requests., The package serves the generated console page at a browser route.

- **Evidence against:** The inspected package source does not show what the remotely hosted script sends, so it does not establish that the key is actually transmitted to that host.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to mcp-scraper@0.96.0.

- Review the evidence and your use of mcp-scraper@0.96.0 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
