Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The cloud metadata reference is part of remote URL blocking, while the flagged shell calls support browser setup and interactive clipboard use. Account credentials remain in the reviewed Qwen session flows, and Codex configuration changes occur through the explicit sync command; no concrete attack behavior was identified. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-25T21:33:14.981Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-25T21:35:47.185Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 5013 ms - **AI review time:** 146680 ms - **Total time:** 152204 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:** No attack was identified in the inspected package source. The flagged process and network behavior aligns with browser installation, interactive terminal use, and the Qwen proxy’s account flows. - **Trigger:** A user runs the CLI, invokes synchronization, or uses the interactive interface. - **Impact:** No confirmed malicious effect or unrelated credential transfer was found. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-25T21:35:47.185Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The reviewed code installs Chromium when needed, updates first-party client settings through the explicit sync command, and manages Qwen account sessions. The cloud metadata match is used to reject unsafe remote media URLs. - **Rationale:** The cloud metadata reference is part of remote URL blocking, while the flagged shell calls support browser setup and interactive clipboard use. Account credentials remain in the reviewed Qwen session flows, and Codex configuration changes occur through the explicit sync command; no concrete attack behavior was identified. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The manifest defines a CLI and build scripts; the inspected manifest has no install lifecycle hook., Cloud metadata hostnames appear in remote-media URL blocking logic. The browser installer invokes Playwright’s Chromium install command., Codex synchronization runs through an explicit sync command and writes the caller’s API key and proxy URL into the QwenProxy provider configuration., Inspected session code handles browser cookies and login or refresh through Qwen account flows; the reviewed callers do not show transfer to an unrelated recipient., Prepared dependency source excerpts show an OSS client, input/configuration helpers, and a SQLite entry point consistent with declared package use., Clipboard reads are used by interactive paste handlers; the delete-chats command invokes its named account cleanup operation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to qwenproxy-cli@1.5.3. - Review the evidence and your use of qwenproxy-cli@1.5.3 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.
