AI Security Review
scanned 12d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe inspected source does not establish malicious behavior, but it launches a bundled ELF runtime with inherited environment data and project secrets. The available offline analysis could not resolve that executable's behavior, so review remains necessary.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
A user runs the CLI's dev command on Linux x64.
Impact
The unresolved executable could access environment data and project secrets; any further effects remain unknown.
Mechanism
The CLI selects its bundled runtime and starts it with the current process environment plus project secrets.
AI rationale
The inspected source does not establish malicious behavior, but it launches a bundled ELF runtime with inherited environment data and project secrets. The available offline analysis could not resolve that executable's behavior, so review remains necessary.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Manual Review at 82.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
AI review observations
- The manifest exposes the CLI and includes the bin/ directory in the package.
- The dev path selects and launches the bundled runtime, passing it the inherited environment and configured secrets.
- The host inspection record identifies the bundled file as an ELF executable but could not analyze its behavior.
