Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. A running local server accepts arbitrary proxy targets. A caller can label a request as service-worker traffic by supplying headers in its body, which disables the private-address block; hostname checks also permit DNS-rebinding bypasses. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-10T01:36:09.325Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-10T01:40:19.963Z - **Download time:** 1266 ms - **Static scan time:** 84022 ms - **AI review time:** 165349 ms - **Total time:** 250638 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:** A running local server accepts arbitrary proxy targets. A caller can label a request as service-worker traffic by supplying headers in its body, which disables the private-address block; hostname checks also permit DNS-rebinding bypasses. - **Trigger:** Start the server and send a request to its /proxy route with a body containing a target URL and headers. - **Impact:** A reachable server may fetch internal services or cloud metadata endpoints and return their responses to the requester. - **Evidence paths:** src/server/routes/http-proxy.ts, src/server/utils/proxy-helpers.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-10T01:40:19.963Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Proxy SSRF guard bypass through a caller-controlled service-worker flag and hostname-only validation. - **Rationale:** The package contains a concrete SSRF weakness in its runtime proxy, but no install lifecycle hook or evidence of covert exfiltration was found. Its agent shell and file tools are product capabilities, while the proxy bypass warrants a warning. - **Files touched:** src/server/routes/http-proxy.ts, src/server/utils/proxy-helpers.ts ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The server proxy marks any request with body-supplied headers as coming from a service worker., Private-address blocking is bypassed for requests marked as service-worker traffic., The proxy guard itself notes that hostname-only checks can be bypassed through DNS rebinding., The package exposes an AI-agent tool dispatcher that can invoke shell and workspace mutation tools. - **Evidence against:** The manifest has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., The JavaScript tool deliberately blocks sensitive globals and disables network access unless enabled. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to shadow-claw@1.32.0. - Review the evidence and your use of shadow-claw@1.32.0 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.
