A package installation can alter an AI agent's available instructions and cause unauthorised agent actions. - **Verdict:** AI-agent control-surface policy finding - **Product-default install policy:** Warn by default; block when configured - **Firewall policy:** Warn by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Soft block: AI-agent control surface - **Selected version:** 0.2.9 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This finding concerns changes to an AI agent's instructions or configuration without explicit user action. It does not by itself establish malware intent. The CLI warns by default and blocks when configured for this policy. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM flags this version as an AI-agent control-surface risk. Installation can place a package-controlled AI skill in the user's global agent skills directory. It can remove an existing matching skill without consent. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 97.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-06T05:30:33.876Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-06T05:31:21.681Z - **Download time:** 257 ms - **Static scan time:** 107 ms - **AI review time:** 47440 ms - **Total time:** 47805 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:** Installation can place a package-controlled AI skill in the user's global agent skills directory. It can remove an existing matching skill without consent. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall when the lifecycle environment satisfies the script's broad global-install check. - **Impact:** A package installation can alter an AI agent's available instructions and cause unauthorised agent actions. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, skills/zmyt-crm/SKILL.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-06T05:31:21.681Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Automatic replacement of an AI-agent skill with a symlink to package content. - **Attack narrative:** The package declares postinstall. Its condition treats a postinstall with a different INIT\_CWD as global, then creates ~/.agents/skills and replaces zmyt-\* entries with symlinks into the installed package. The installed skill directs agents to operate the CRM and to log in again without asking the user. This is an unconsented install-time mutation of an AI-agent control surface. - **Rationale:** The automatic lifecycle hook mutates a global AI-agent skill directory and can recursively delete a pre-existing matching entry. The weak installation guard makes this occur beyond an explicit setup command. - **Files touched:** ~/.agents/skills, ~/.agents/skills/zmyt-crm, skills/zmyt-crm ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for policy risk:** The manifest automatically runs a postinstall script., The postinstall global-install test also accepts any postinstall whose initial working directory differs from the package directory, so it can run during ordinary dependency installation., It creates ~/.agents/skills, deletes an existing matching skill recursively, and replaces it with a package-controlled symlink., The injected skill tells an agent to reauthenticate without asking the user. - **Evidence against:** No install-time network request or secret collection is present in the inspected postinstall script., The runtime CLI's API endpoint is consistent with its stated CRM service. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to zmyt-cli@0.2.9. - Avoid installing zmyt-cli@0.2.9. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1.
