5 threat patterns detected

high

hidden instruction

high hidden content ratio detected in DOM

medium

encoded payload

suspicious base64-like blobs detected in page content

high

hidden content

A hidden anchor tag with display:none contains an obfuscated href path (/dAgFoJqcVGJ3/553e44ac/QEmI6t4j_nlC/KmfIQaELbOvR/ZBt_rZL41dvW) and random-looking link text (3X5yp2Z_NOBN), consistent with cloaked link injection or SEO spam. Not visible to users but present in DOM for crawlers or automated agents. (location: page.html:10)

high

obfuscated code

Large inline JavaScript block contains heavily obfuscated, base64/encoded string payload assigned to $_ts.cd. The script loads and executes dynamic code at runtime (calls $_ts.lcd() and _$ft()), making static analysis of its behavior impossible. This pattern is commonly used to evade detection and deliver malicious payloads conditionally. (location: page.html:5)

medium

prompt injection

The page body is effectively empty of legitimate content — the only visible text extracted is the obfuscated JS call '_$ft()' and the hidden link text '3X5yp2Z_NOBN'. An AI agent visiting this page expecting content would receive no meaningful input, while the hidden and obfuscated elements could be designed to manipulate agent behavior or data pipelines parsing the DOM. (location: page-text.txt:4-5)

FAQ: how to interpret this assessment

Common questions teams ask before deciding whether to use this domain in agent workflows.

Is 189.cn safe for AI agents to use?

189.cn currently scores 38/100 with a suspicious verdict and low confidence. The goal is to protect agents from high-risk context before they act on it. Treat this as a decision signal: higher scores suggest lower observed risk, while lower scores mean you should add review or block this domain.

How should I interpret the score and verdict?

Use the score as a policy threshold: 80–100 is safe, 50–79 is caution, 20–49 is suspicious, and 0–19 is dangerous. Teams often auto-allow safe, require human review for caution/suspicious, and block dangerous.

How does brin compute this domain score?

brin evaluates four dimensions: identity (source trust), behavior (runtime patterns), content (malicious instructions), and graph (relationship risk). Analysis runs in tiers: static signals, deterministic pattern checks, then AI semantic analysis when needed.

What do identity, behavior, content, and graph mean for this domain?

Identity checks source trust, behavior checks unusual runtime patterns, content checks for malicious instructions, and graph checks risky relationships to other entities. Looking at sub-scores helps you understand why an entity passed or failed.

Why does brin scan packages, repos, skills, MCP servers, pages, and commits?

brin performs risk assessments on external context before it reaches an AI agent. It scores that context for threats like prompt injection, hijacking, credential harvesting, and supply chain attacks, so teams can decide whether to block, review, or proceed safely.

Can I rely on a safe verdict as a full security guarantee?

No. A safe verdict means no significant risk signals were detected in this scan. It is not a formal guarantee; assessments are automated and point-in-time, so combine scores with your own controls and periodic re-checks.

When should I re-check before using an entity?

Re-check before high-impact actions such as installs, upgrades, connecting MCP servers, executing remote code, or granting secrets. Use the API in CI or runtime gates so decisions are based on the latest scan.
