Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 16 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration - **Selected version:** 0.25.2 - **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. Source inspection found a credential forwarding risk: an unrestricted environment override selects the registry destination for a request containing a stored refresh token. The behavior is conditional on operator configuration, so this warrants a warning rather than a block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-10T02:15:42.229Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-10T02:16:53.267Z - **Download time:** 519 ms - **Static scan time:** 2631 ms - **AI review time:** 67887 ms - **Total time:** 71038 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:** A configured registry URL can receive a stored registry refresh token. This creates conditional credential exposure when the URL points to an untrusted server. - **Trigger:** A user runs a registry operation with stored registry credentials while KORDIS\_API\_URL is set. - **Impact:** A server selected through the environment can receive the refresh token and may be able to use the registry identity. - **Evidence paths:** dist/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-10T02:16:53.267Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The environment override replaces the saved registry URL, and the CLI submits the stored refresh token to that server's session refresh endpoint. - **Rationale:** Source inspection found a credential forwarding risk: an unrestricted environment override selects the registry destination for a request containing a stored refresh token. The behavior is conditional on operator configuration, so this warrants a warning rather than a block. - **Files touched:** dist/index.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** KORDIS\_API\_URL overrides the saved registry URL without a destination allowlist., Registry operations refresh the stored registry token through the selected URL., The refresh request sends the stored refresh token in its request body., The bundle describes writing to CLAUDE.md as setup behavior; this excerpt alone does not establish an unconsented write. - **Evidence against:** The postinstall script only prints setup guidance for global installs; it does not run setup., The reviewed source does not show a package-controlled default destination for the registry token. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to memgineering@0.25.2. - Review the evidence and your use of memgineering@0.25.2 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.
