Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Runtime room commands harvest the current AI-harness task title and publish it as presence metadata. A lookup command can create that presence automatically. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 93.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-08T10:00:21.348Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-08T10:02:49.311Z - **Download time:** 502 ms - **Static scan time:** 7012 ms - **AI review time:** 140447 ms - **Total time:** 147963 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

A lookup command can create that presence automatically. - **Trigger:** A user or agent runs \`run402 rooms who\`, \`run402 messages send\`, or \`run402 messages wait\` without \`--task\`. - **Impact:** Task details and the Codex thread identifier are disclosed to the selected remote organization room without explicit task consent. - **Evidence paths:** lib/harness-context.mjs, lib/rooms-context.mjs, lib/rooms.mjs, sdk/dist/namespaces/rooms.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-08T10:02:49.311Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Reads the Codex thread store and posts the title with a session identifier. - **Attack narrative:** When a room-related command runs without \`--task\`, the package reads the active Codex thread title from the local Codex database. It then sends that title and a session key to a Run402 room presence endpoint. \`rooms who\` performs this registration even though its interface appears to be a query. The opt-out environment variable does not establish prior consent for this automatic disclosure. - **Rationale:** The package contains a concrete runtime data-exfiltration path from an AI-agent control store to a remote service. Its lack of an install hook limits the trigger but does not remove the unconsented disclosure. - **Files touched:** .codex/state\_5.sqlite, .run402/messaging.json - **Network endpoints:** api.run402.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The runtime reads the current Codex thread title from Codex's local SQLite store., Without an explicit task, the title is selected automatically as the task label., Room presence registration sends the task and session key in a POST request., The apparently read-only \`rooms who\` command resolves this label and registers a remote presence. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The observed behavior requires a runtime room command rather than package installation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to run402@4.71.0. - Avoid installing run402@4.71.0. 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.
