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 package’s default pidash setup exposes session history and agent controls on a LAN-reachable daemon without authenticating browser clients. This is a serious capability and access-control risk, but the dashboard purpose and LAN origin restriction do not establish malicious intent. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T21:56:45.851Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T21:57:36.020Z - **Download time:** 1037 ms - **Static scan time:** 6787 ms - **AI review time:** 42342 ms - **Total time:** 50169 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 default pidash dashboard exposes session history and session controls to clients that can reach the daemon on the local network, without authentication in the inspected browser handlers. - **Trigger:** An interactive pi session starts with pidash enabled, which is the default absent an explicit \`pidash\_enable\` setting. - **Impact:** A client on an allowed reachable network may read session content and send commands to connected agent sessions. This is a meaningful agent-control and confidentiality risk, though it is not evidence of malicious intent. - **Evidence paths:** extensions/pidash/pidash.ts, scripts/pidash-server.ts, scripts/daemon-shared.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T21:57:36.020Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The extension starts a daemon bound to \`0.0.0.0\`; browser WebSocket clients can watch registered sessions and send commands that are forwarded to pi sessions. The origin allowlist restricts browser origins to localhost/private LAN ranges but does not authenticate clients. - **Rationale:** The package’s default pidash setup exposes session history and agent controls on a LAN-reachable daemon without authenticating browser clients. This is a serious capability and access-control risk, but the dashboard purpose and LAN origin restriction do not establish malicious intent. - **Files touched:** scripts/pidash-server.ts, scripts/daemon-shared.ts, extensions/pidash/pidash.ts - **Network endpoints:** 0.0.0.0:19190, https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** Pidash is enabled by default when no \`pidash\_enable\` setting is present; only an explicit false setting disables registration., The pidash daemon listens on \`0.0.0.0\` and accepts browser origins from private LAN address ranges., Browser WebSocket clients can watch sessions, and the daemon forwards pidash commands to connected pi sessions without an authentication check in the inspected handlers., Pidash registers session metadata and replays session history to the daemon; live event payloads can include message content., The image-generation tool sends its configured Gemini key to Google's Generative Language API when the user invokes the tool. - **Evidence against:** Pidash is documented as a dashboard for aggregating and interacting with pi sessions, and its daemon uses a private/LAN origin allowlist., Pidash skips registration for one-shot sessions, and its setting can disable the feature., The image-generation key is sent to the Google API endpoint that provides the requested image-generation service., No malicious install hook or unrelated credential destination was identified. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to pi-orchestrator-config@4.21.0. - Review the evidence and your use of pi-orchestrator-config@4.21.0 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.
