AI Security Review
scanned 12d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe automatic install hook performs persistent shell configuration changes and project-file mutations without a consent check. These behaviors warrant a warning, while the inspected source does not establish a concrete malicious payload or exfiltration path.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Installing the package with npm runs its postinstall hook.
Impact
These unprompted changes persist in the user's shell configuration and can remove or relocate project files.
Mechanism
The hook adds launcher aliases to a shell profile, creates launchers, removes build directories, and moves package files into the parent project.
AI rationale
The automatic install hook performs persistent shell configuration changes and project-file mutations without a consent check. These behaviors warrant a warning, while the inspected source does not establish a concrete malicious payload or exfiltration path.
Evidence
package.jsonnpm-post-install.js
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 91.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The package runs npm-post-install.js automatically through its postinstall hook.
- The installer adds launcher aliases to a shell startup file and creates launchers with broad executable permissions.
- The installer removes build directories and moves package files into the parent project.
Evidence against
- The inspected install behavior sets up launchers and project files; no credential collection or network transmission was identified.
