Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged as AI-agent capability risk** — Allowed by default with warning: agent-facing configuration or capability changes need review before use. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Warn-only AI-agent capability risk - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** AI-agent capability abuse - **Selected version:** 4.16.0 - **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 source supports a real runtime exposure: default-enabled pidash streams session history to a daemon reachable on the LAN, where browser clients can watch sessions and issue supported commands without authentication in the inspected path. This is a warning for dangerous dashboard capability, not evidence of malicious install behavior or third-party exfiltration. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-20T10:24:00.730Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-20T10:25:31.301Z - **Download time:** 1793 ms - **Static scan time:** 6270 ms - **AI review time:** 82505 ms - **Total time:** 90571 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:** Pidash automatically forwards session material to a dashboard daemon that listens on all network interfaces. The unauthenticated browser interface can watch sessions and forward supported commands. - **Trigger:** A pi session starts while pidash is enabled, which is the default. - **Impact:** A client able to reach the daemon port may view private prompts and session output, and send supported dashboard commands to a pi session. - **Evidence paths:** extensions/pidash/pidash.ts, scripts/pidash-server.ts, scripts/daemon-shared.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-20T10:25:31.301Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The extension connects to its daemon and sends session history and events. The daemon exposes session data to browser WebSocket clients without requiring an Origin header or other authentication in the inspected path. - **Rationale:** The source supports a real runtime exposure: default-enabled pidash streams session history to a daemon reachable on the LAN, where browser clients can watch sessions and issue supported commands without authentication in the inspected path. This is a warning for dangerous dashboard capability, not evidence of malicious install behavior or third-party exfiltration. - **Files touched:** extensions/pidash/pidash.ts, scripts/pidash-server.ts, scripts/daemon-shared.ts - **Network endpoints:** 0.0.0.0, ws://127.0.0.1:${pidashPort}/ws/pi ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The manifest defines only a UI build and a prepack hook; it has no install lifecycle hook., Pidash is enabled by default and hooks session startup to connect automatically., Pidash sends session history and user messages to its daemon over a WebSocket., The daemon listens on all interfaces and exposes active session information through its HTTP API., Browser WebSocket clients can request session watches, and dashboard commands are forwarded to pi sessions; the upgrade check allows connections with no Origin header. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to pi-orchestrator-config@4.16.0. - Review the evidence and your use of pi-orchestrator-config@4.16.0 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.
