Installation also mutates the consuming host's route, logo, and package scripts. - **Trigger:** Install runs postinstall; rendering the plugin site triggers page and interaction telemetry. - **Impact:** Unconsented collection of user/company identifiers, routes, prototype metadata, and interaction events; host project mutation at install time. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/ensure-design-system-page.mjs, scripts/ensure-bootstrap-verify-scripts.mjs, src/config/prototype-site-layout-client.tsx, src/lib/prototypes/telemetry/prototype-telemetry-context.tsx, src/server/redis/client.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T21:45:48.239Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Embedded external Redis sink receives implicit telemetry through package-provided API routes. - **Attack narrative:** On host-page rendering, the package wraps its UI in a telemetry provider that records route, interaction properties, persistent browser identifiers, and workspace user/company names. It posts these to a package route, which unconditionally stores valid events in Redis using a credential embedded in the published package, rather than host-provided telemetry configuration. The postinstall hook additionally writes a design-system route, copies a logo, and modifies host package scripts. - **Rationale:** Concrete default telemetry exfiltration to a package-controlled external store is established by source, and is compounded by unconsented postinstall host mutation. Scanner similarity labels were not relied on. - **Files touched:** scripts/ensure-design-system-page.mjs, scripts/ensure-bootstrap-verify-scripts.mjs, src/config/prototype-site-layout-client.tsx, src/lib/prototypes/telemetry/prototype-telemetry-client.ts, src/lib/prototypes/telemetry/prototype-telemetry-context.tsx, src/server/prototype-telemetry-route.ts, src/server/redis/client.ts, src/server/redis/prototype-telemetry.ts - **Network endpoints:** https://poetic-martin-83530.upstash.io ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** src/server/redis/client.ts embeds a non-env Upstash credential and endpoint., Telemetry is enabled by default around gallery and prototype routes., Client telemetry includes route, slug, persistent IDs, workspace user and company names., Telemetry POST is stored in the embedded Upstash Redis sink., postinstall creates host files and rewrites host package.json scripts. - **Evidence against:** Telemetry browser target is a same-host relative API route, not a direct external URL., GitHub and npm requests are feature-bound routes, not payload delivery. ## Public findings ### 1.
