OpenSSF Malicious Packages via OSV
Summary
Malicious code in @activepieces/piece-google-bigquery (npm)
Details
The package presents itself as an Activepieces connector for Google BigQuery but src/index.js combines require("child_process"), an OS reconnaissance command (ping), and multiple POST calls to an external endpoint at module load. This is the network-command-exfiltration + hardcoded-C2 shape rather than a BigQuery client: a legitimate BigQuery piece would call googleapis / @google-cloud/bigquery, not shell out and POST host data to an unrelated destination. Loading the module therefore executes attacker-controlled behavior against the installer's host with no relation to the advertised BigQuery functionality.

Independent LPM AI assessment
CleanIndependent AI assessment: clean. LPM AI assessed this version as clean; the assessments disagree.
The bundled entrypoint implements declared BigQuery functionality and routes credentials/data to Google endpoints only when invoked. Scanner signals stem from bundled dependencies and legitimate API/credential use, not a concrete malicious chain.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
User configures and runs an Activepieces Google BigQuery action or trigger.
Impact
Can read, create, update, or delete data only in the user-authorized BigQuery project.
Mechanism
Authenticated Google BigQuery API integration
AI rationale
The bundled entrypoint implements declared BigQuery functionality and routes credentials/data to Google endpoints only when invoked. Scanner signals stem from bundled dependencies and legitimate API/credential use, not a concrete malicious chain.

Independent scan evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 97.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
Evidence against
- package.json has no lifecycle scripts and only src/index.js entrypoint.
- src/index.js defines an Activepieces Google BigQuery integration with explicit actions/triggers.
- Service-account/OAuth tokens are used only as Bearer auth for Google APIs.
- Observed endpoints are Google BigQuery and OAuth endpoints; no third-party exfiltration endpoint.
- No package-owned child-process, eval, metadata-service, or agent-control behavior found.
