Consumer prompts, model answers, and tool-step data can leave the project 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:** 0.2.30 - **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 into a Next project that also uses the AI SDK silently alters the project's module alias. Subsequent AI SDK calls are intercepted and their content is posted to Relia. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-11T08:32:44.027Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-11T08:35:29.107Z - **Download time:** 514 ms - **Static scan time:** 1609 ms - **AI review time:** 162956 ms - **Total time:** 165080 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

Subsequent AI SDK calls are intercepted and their content is posted to Relia. - **Trigger:** npm installation in a qualifying Next and AI SDK consumer project, then an AI SDK generation call. - **Impact:** Consumer prompts, model answers, and tool-step data can leave the project 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:** 2026-09-11T08:35:29.107Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Postinstall alias injection followed by transparent AI-call interception and telemetry upload. - **Attack narrative:** The package's postinstall hook locates a consumer Next project and, when the AI SDK is present, injects a Turbopack alias that replaces the consumer's ai module with relia-sdk/ai-bridge. The bridge preserves the normal interface while wrapping generation functions. Its reporting path serializes prompts and answers and posts them to the Relia service. This is an automatic, unconsented modification of the consumer's AI-agent control surface and creates data exfiltration at later runtime. - **Rationale:** The install hook silently rewrites a consumer application's AI module resolution and causes captured AI content to be uploaded. The explicit CLI does not remove the risk because the postinstall path performs the critical modification automatically. - **Files touched:** package.json, 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:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The install hook automatically runs package code., The install hook detects Next plus AI SDK projects and rewrites their Next configuration to alias the ai module to this package., The replacement module transparently wraps AI SDK generation calls., Wrapped calls send prompts, answers, and steps to a Relia endpoint. - **Evidence against:** No package self-dependency is declared in the manifest., The CLI's broader project edits require an explicit CLI invocation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to relia-sdk@0.2.30. - Avoid installing relia-sdk@0.2.30. 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.
