Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Flagged — allowed with a warning** — Allowed by default policy, but 14 finding(s) warrant review before installing. - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Product-default install policy:** Warn - **Firewall policy:** Matched warn-list - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution - **Selected version:** 4.17.1 - **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 confirms a reachable shell injection vulnerability in the Git protection flow, supporting a remote code execution warning. The inspected behavior does not establish package-authored exploitation or malicious intent. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-22T14:23:25.991Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-22T14:26:11.971Z - **Download time:** 2035 ms - **Static scan time:** 6421 ms - **AI review time:** 157522 ms - **Total time:** 165980 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:** The Git protection check contains a shell injection vulnerability when checking a staged path. A crafted path can be interpolated into a shell command. - **Trigger:** The orchestrator processes a git add command with a path containing shell syntax. - **Impact:** Shell commands may run with the orchestrator process's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** extensions/orchestrator/enforcement.ts, extensions/orchestrator/enforcement-helpers.ts, extensions/orchestrator/git-helpers.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-22T14:26:11.971Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The check extracts the path and passes it to a helper that joins arguments into a command string executed by a shell. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms a reachable shell injection vulnerability in the Git protection flow, supporting a remote code execution warning. The inspected behavior does not establish package-authored exploitation or malicious intent. - **Files touched:** extensions/orchestrator/enforcement.ts, extensions/orchestrator/enforcement-helpers.ts, extensions/orchestrator/git-helpers.ts ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The Git protection path extracts staged paths from git add commands and passes each path to runGit for an ignore check., runGit joins arguments into a shell command and executes it with execSync; the tokenizer removes quoting but leaves shell metacharacters in the resulting path token., The inspected acpx runtime excerpt formats prompt details for display and does not show an account action. - **Evidence against:** The inspected source establishes a command injection vulnerability, but does not show the package itself exploiting it. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to pi-orchestrator-config@4.17.1. - Review the evidence and your use of pi-orchestrator-config@4.17.1 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.
