AI Security Review
scanned 15d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe inspected lifecycle and runtime behavior is consistent with the package’s document conversion function, with no confirmed attack surface established. The required test PDF was unreadable, so manual review is warranted to resolve that evidence gap.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The package postinstall hook runs during installation; its installer returns early when not running under node_modules.
Impact
The downloaded executable supports document conversion; the uninspected PDF prevents a fully grounded clean verdict.
Mechanism
The hook downloads a Windows conversion executable from the project’s GitHub repository into the package’s src directory. The required PDF evidence was unreadable, so its contents could not be assessed.
AI rationale
The inspected lifecycle and runtime behavior is consistent with the package’s document conversion function, with no confirmed attack surface established. The required test PDF was unreadable, so manual review is warranted to resolve that evidence gap.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Manual Review at 78.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
AI review observations
- The manifest runs a postinstall script that downloads cv.exe from the project’s GitHub repository into the package’s src directory.
- The installer skips execution outside node_modules, and the runtime downloads the same executable only when conversion needs it.
- The required test PDF could not be read as printable UTF-8, so its contents remain unverified.
Evidence against
- The inspected installer targets the package’s own src directory; no broad consumer-project mutation or secret handling was established.
- The inspected runtime excerpt selects the Windows conversion executable and uses it in the documented document-conversion flow.
