AI Security Review
scanned 5d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package automatically records and may transmit an install event from its postinstall hook, with telemetry enabled by default. The inspected event is limited to allowlisted metadata and an anonymous random ID, so this warrants a telemetry warning rather than a malicious verdict.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
npm install runs the postinstall hook, which records the event and launches a detached flush when telemetry is enabled.
Impact
The publisher can count installations without a user running the package. The reviewed install event carries limited metadata, not credentials or project contents.
Mechanism
The event is queued with allowlisted metadata and a random install ID, then posted to the PostHog batch endpoint. Telemetry is on by default, with CI, DO_NOT_TRACK, and a user disable setting as gates.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 94.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The package runs scripts/postinstall.mjs automatically after install.
- The postinstall hook records an install event and starts a detached telemetry flush when its gates allow.
- Telemetry is enabled by default unless CI, DO_NOT_TRACK, or the user’s disable setting closes the gate.
- The install event records whether the install was global; common fields include package version, platform, architecture, Node version, agent host, and a random install ID.
- Telemetry is sent to the configured PostHog host, defaulting to events.nanonets.com.
Evidence against
- Telemetry code allowlists event properties and drops unknown keys and non-string values.
- The install ID is randomly generated rather than derived from machine or repository data.
- The hook skips CI and telemetry faults do not fail installation.
- Other flagged behavior, including agent configuration writes and package upgrades, is associated with explicit CLI commands.
