What it doesAI

Electron desktop shell that auto-installs a portable DeepSeek Harness runtime and provides a bilingual Web GUI.

  • Auto-installs portable Node and pinned deepseek-harness on first run
  • Prebuilt packs and CN mirrors for easier download
  • Bilingual (zh/en) interface

Capability tags are AI-inferred or rule-extracted from the README (see badge) — vocabulary-limited, not install-verified. AI = inferred; README = literal keyword from the readme.

Installation

GitHub repository

Ecosystem apps are not installable via dsh plugin add: desktop / web shells install or deploy through their own release channel (GitHub Releases or the project site).

The level reads L5 · Ecosystem plugin / L5 · Ecosystem app per the three-way classification (the L1-L5 ladder does not rate them); the security scan still runs.

Verification & Compatibility◼ Ecosystem app

Grouped by plugin version: each card lists the dsh versions actually tested against that artifact version and their install verdicts (L5 wins). Untested combinations are omitted — absence means untested, never assumed compatible. L1–L3 are a plugin-level static archive (independent of the dsh version — the same verdict on every dsh row): they sit in each row's level grid next to L4/L5, marked "static", while their evidence is stored once per plugin inside that row's "checks & evidence" instead of being duplicated per version.

External credentials (plugin-level): none detected

L1–L3 are plugin-level static conclusions (baseline, identical across dsh versions): evidence is stored once per plugin.

Only the latest 3 published versions are shown; source-snapshot (commit hash) groups, unstated groups and older versions are omitted — the full archive stays in the data layer (snapshot/unstated groups appear only when a plugin has no published version).

Security Report

Two automated layers, neither a manual review: a static scan (per-plugin rule checks) and a model-driven dynamic security audit that covers only the subset static-flagged at warn or above and never executes plugin code.

  • mediumRuntime artifacts are installed/executed without mandatory checksum verification (Node.js is never hashed)provision.js:864

    The portable node.exe, the deepseek-harness source archive and the prebuilt runtime pack are downloaded (in 'cn'/auto mode the first candidate is a third-party proxy such as ghfast.top or gh-proxy.com), extracted and then executed/built locally. When the manifest does not pin a sha256 (and for Node.js always), a malicious or compromised mirror/proxy can substitute the payload, ending in code execution as the user (node.exe is run directly; `pnpm install`/`build` runs repository scripts). Cached zips at runtimeDir/.downloads are also reused without re-verification.

  • mediumpack.json alias repair allows path traversal: recursive delete/write outside the staging directoryprovision.js:746

    `a.rel` is only checked to start with 'harness/', so a value such as 'harness/../../../../Users/<user>/Documents/x' escapes `staging`. `fs.rmSync(full, {recursive:true, force:true})` then deletes an arbitrary path writable by the user, and targetAbs (fully attacker-controlled and only checked for existence) is copied to that location or junction-linked. This is reachable through ensureRuntimePack() whenever manifest.pack.url is configured, i.e. the built-in 'prebuilt runtime pack' update channel, where the archive is downloaded from the same unverified sources.

  • lowBackend auth token is written in plaintext to the desktop log filemain.js:415

    The authenticated GUI URL, including its `?token=` secret, is appended to ~/.dsh-desktop-logs/desktop.log (and echoed to stdout) on every boot. The token grants access to the local dsh web API/RPC endpoints if the log is copied, attached to a bug report, or read by another local process that lacks the token.

Two real gaps: runtime artifacts (Node.js/harness/runtime pack) are installed and executed without mandatory checksum verification, and pack.json alias repair can delete/write outside the staging dir.

Rule: the dynamic audit can only raise risk, never lower it (raise-only, never an exemption); a wrong raise is withdrawn by human review and the tier falls back to the static verdict. Overall verdict = the stricter of the two layers.

Disclaimer: the static scan and the dynamic security audit are both automated analysis, not a security guarantee. Always review what you install.
