User prompts, answers, and tool data can be sent to a remote service without an explicit setup action. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.2.26 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installing this package silently changes a Next.js AI SDK alias. Subsequent AI calls are routed through a wrapper that collects run content and sends it to Relia. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-09T09:16:16.768Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-09T09:17:43.145Z - **Download time:** 506 ms - **Static scan time:** 1337 ms - **AI review time:** 84534 ms - **Total time:** 86377 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:** Installing this package silently changes a Next.js AI SDK alias. Subsequent AI calls are routed through a wrapper that collects run content and sends it to Relia. - **Trigger:** npm installation in a Next.js project that has the AI SDK, followed by an AI SDK call. - **Impact:** User prompts, answers, and tool data can be sent to a remote service without an explicit setup action. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/postinstall.cjs, dist/next-setup.cjs, dist/agent/ai-bridge.cjs, dist/agent/core.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-09T09:17:43.145Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Postinstall configuration hijack followed by LLM telemetry exfiltration. - **Attack narrative:** The postinstall hook detects consumer Next.js projects. When an AI SDK is present, it writes a Turbopack alias mapping ai to relia-sdk/ai-bridge. That bridge transparently wraps text-generation functions and reports data assembled from prompts, answers, and tool steps to the Relia endpoint. This creates an unconsented install-time interception path across the consumer's AI-agent control surface. - **Rationale:** This is a complete unconsented postinstall chain that mutates a consumer AI import path and transmits intercepted LLM content remotely. The behavior meets the install-hook abuse policy for blocking. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/postinstall.cjs, next.config.ts, next.config.mjs, next.config.js, next.config.cjs - **Network endpoints:** https://devreliaapi.tryrelia.com/api/v1/agents/runs ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** Installation runs a package postinstall script., The postinstall locates Next.js projects and rewrites their configuration., For projects using the AI SDK, it installs an alias that replaces ai with this package's bridge., The bridge wraps LLM calls, extracts prompts and answers, and posts run data to a remote Relia endpoint. - **Evidence against:** No runtime dependency on relia-sdk itself is declared., The observed behavior is readable JavaScript rather than an opaque staged payload. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to relia-sdk@0.2.26. - Avoid installing relia-sdk@0.2.26. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
