Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 19 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed. - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Product-default install policy:** Allow - **Firewall policy:** No policy match - **Public report status:** Under Review - **Threat category:** Unknown - **Selected version:** 0.1.0-rc.163 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: manual review; recommendation: manual review. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The source shows a user-triggered development runtime receiving project secrets, but the shipped executable could not be inspected beyond its unrecognized format. Because its handling of those secrets remains unresolved, manual review is warranted. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Manual Review - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 78.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-23T00:09:26.850Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-23T00:11:25.484Z - **Download time:** 1535 ms - **Static scan time:** 5391 ms - **AI review time:** 111707 ms - **Total time:** 118634 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 concrete attack was confirmed. The CLI launches an included native development runtime with project secrets in its environment, and that executable's behavior remains unresolved. - **Trigger:** When the CLI starts its configured development engine. - **Impact:** No secret disclosure is established; how the runtime handles those secrets could not be determined. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/index.js, bin/linux-x64/runlot-dev-runtime, .lpm-inspection-6Yjtxx/0-f52250d44b85.txt - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-23T00:11:25.484Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The CLI copies project secrets into the child process environment before launching the bundled runtime. - **Rationale:** The source shows a user-triggered development runtime receiving project secrets, but the shipped executable could not be inspected beyond its unrecognized format. Because its handling of those secrets remains unresolved, manual review is warranted. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/index.js, bin/linux-x64/runlot-dev-runtime, .lpm-inspection-6Yjtxx/0-f52250d44b85.txt ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Manual Review - **Confidence:** 78.0% - **Recommended action:** manual\_review - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **AI review observations:** The manifest exposes the CLI and includes a bin directory, but declares no install lifecycle hook., The CLI can select and launch its bundled development runtime., Before launch, the CLI places project secrets in the runtime process environment., The available host analysis identifies the Linux runtime as an unrecognized executable and leaves its behavior unresolved. - **Evidence against:** The unresolved executable is used as a development runtime; the inspected source does not establish secret disclosure or another attack. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to runlot@0.1.0-rc.163. - Review the evidence and your use of runlot@0.1.0-rc.163 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.
