Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The install hook is a package-aligned, integrity-checked CLI bootstrap, not a demonstrated malicious chain. Network and process primitives are limited to the Snyk wrapper and explicitly user-invoked CLI execution. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-06T16:32:19.152Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-06T16:33:34.601Z - **Download time:** 507 ms - **Static scan time:** 19108 ms - **AI review time:** 55833 ms - **Total time:** 75449 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:** Install-time code downloads a Snyk CLI binary from fixed Snyk hosts and verifies its bundled SHA-256. The downloaded executable is run only when the user invokes the snyk command; no confirmed malicious attack surface was found. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall downloads the binary; user invocation of bin/snyk executes it. - **Impact:** Installs a verified Snyk CLI binary inside the package directory. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, wrapper\_dist/bootstrap.js, wrapper\_dist/common.js, wrapper\_dist/index.js, bin/snyk - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-06T16:33:34.601Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** verified platform-specific CLI bootstrap and user-invoked execution - **Rationale:** The install hook is a package-aligned, integrity-checked CLI bootstrap, not a demonstrated malicious chain. Network and process primitives are limited to the Snyk wrapper and explicitly user-invoked CLI execution. - **Files touched:** package.json, wrapper\_dist/bootstrap.js, wrapper\_dist/common.js, wrapper\_dist/index.js, bin/snyk, wrapper\_dist/generated/version, wrapper\_dist/generated/sha256sums.txt, wrapper\_dist/generated/binary-deployments.json - **Network endpoints:** https://downloads.snyk.io/cli, https://static.snyk.io/cli, https://3e845233db8c4f43b4c4b9245f1d7bd6@o30291.ingest.sentry.io/4504599528079360 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json postinstall invokes wrapper\_dist/bootstrap.js., bootstrap downloads a platform CLI binary during install., common.js writes the download into wrapper\_dist. - **Evidence against:** Downloaded binary URL/version/name are fixed by package-generated metadata., common.js verifies SHA-256 against bundled sha256sums.txt before rename/chmod., The installer does not execute the downloaded binary; bin/snyk runs it only on user CLI invocation., No source evidence of credential harvesting, foreign config writes, persistence, or destructive behavior. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to snyk@1.1306.3. - Review the evidence and your use of snyk@1.1306.3 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.
