AI Security Review
scanned 2d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source does not establish the credential exfiltration or fixed gateway redirection suggested by the scanner. It does show automatic, undocumented error reporting to the configured OpenTag server, including error messages and stacks, so this merits a telemetry warning rather than a publish block.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
Normal CLI execution can report internal, dependency, or protocol errors; unhandled process failures also reach the reporting handler.
Impact
The server operator receives error messages, stacks, and command or platform metadata without an explicit opt-in; error details may contain sensitive context.
Mechanism
The CLI reads the saved server identity and posts a JSON report with redacted error text and diagnostic metadata to `/api/v1/error-reports`.
AI rationale

Configured OpenTag server: /api/v1/error-reports
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 86.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The manifest exposes `dist/cli/index.mjs` as the CLI and has no install lifecycle script.
- Normal CLI startup installs process error reporting and observes command failures.
- Command error reports are limited to internal, dependency, and protocol categories.
- The report destination is recovered from saved OpenTag credentials or account and computer identity state.
- The CLI POSTs JSON reports to that server’s `/api/v1/error-reports` endpoint.
- The report payload includes redacted error messages and stacks, along with diagnostic metadata.
Evidence against
- No package lifecycle hook is declared.
- The reporter targets the saved OpenTag server rather than a hard-coded unrelated collector.
- The inspected code did not show discovered credentials being sent to a foreign host.
