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. When the CLI runs, an obfuscated update routine can fetch version data and execute a global npm installation. This permits a later registry release to become the executed CLI. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-14T05:07:06.619Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-14T05:08:38.557Z - **Download time:** 512 ms - **Static scan time:** 1338 ms - **AI review time:** 90087 ms - **Total time:** 91938 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:** When the CLI runs, an obfuscated update routine can fetch version data and execute a global npm installation. This permits a later registry release to become the executed CLI. - **Trigger:** Running a DesignKit CLI command that reaches its update routine. - **Impact:** A remotely selected package release can be installed and executed in place of the current CLI. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-14T05:08:38.557Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Obfuscated remote-controlled global CLI update. - **Rationale:** There is no install-time lifecycle trigger or confirmed theft/destruction, so the source does not meet the blocking threshold. The obfuscated runtime self-update path remains a material supply-chain risk. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The only runtime bundle is heavily obfuscated, concealing its network and process behavior., A routine in the executable invokes npm globally with a version supplied to its update path., The global installer runs child processes and can replace the CLI with a registry release selected at runtime. - **Evidence against:** package.json contains no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook., The package exposes a user-invoked CLI and its README describes task, login, and download commands., No source evidence showed secret-file harvesting, destructive commands, or a fixed exfiltration endpoint. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to meitu-designkit-cli@1.0.50. - Review the evidence and your use of meitu-designkit-cli@1.0.50 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.
