Package @appupdate/cdn-sync ships as a thin koffi wrapper around prebuilt Go cgo native libraries (~12MB linux.so, ~11MB darwin.dylib for x64/arm64)... ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** external-osv-malicious-v1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 100.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-09T23:10:15.280Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-09T23:10:15.280Z - **Download time:** Not available - **Static scan time:** Not available - **AI review time:** Not available - **Total time:** Not available The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis No additional public attack-surface or AI-review details are available. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @appupdate/cdn-sync@1.0.3. The same advisory and Firewall decision cover these 3 recorded versions: 1.0.2, 1.0.1, 1.0.3. - Avoid installing @appupdate/cdn-sync@1.0.3. 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: Osv Malicious Advisory - **Category:** External Intel - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package @appupdate/cdn-sync ships as a thin koffi wrapper around prebuilt Go cgo native libraries (~12MB linux.so, ~11MB darwin.dylib for x64/arm64). The JS surface exports \`ProbeStart(knock)\` / \`ProbeStop\` / \`ProbeRunning\` / \`ProbeLastError\`, where \`ProbeStart\` requires a caller-supplied passphrase that must match a value compiled into the native binary (per the source comment: 'knock must match the BuiltinKnock compiled into native'). The README explicitly states that endpoints and authentication are encapsulated inside the native binary so installers cannot inspect them. Strings inside the shipped binaries reference Tencent Cloud Object Storage endpoints (\`cos.myqcloud.com\`, \`tencentcos.cn\`, \`https://%s.cos.%s.myqcloud.com\`), indicating the worker is linked against the Tencent COS SDK with destination bucket and credentials embedded in opaque bytes. The advertised purpose (CDN static-asset sync) does not match the only exported symbol family (\`Probe\*\`), and publisher metadata is an unfilled placeholder (\`github.com/your-org/appupdate.git\`, license UNLICENSED, generic \`@appupdate\` scope) providing no verifiable identity. The combination of a passphrase-gated activation path, deliberately hidden destination and credentials inside a shipped binary, doc-mismatched cover story, and placeholder publisher metadata is the structural shape of a covert uploader / backdoor: once an installer or downstream caller invokes \`ProbeStart\` with the right knock, attacker-controlled code executes on the installer's machine against a Tencent COS bucket the installer cannot see or audit. ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** No - **Dependencies:** 1 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 1 ### Published dependency entries - koffi ^2.11.0 (Dependency) ## Package metadata - **Package:** @appupdate/cdn-sync - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.3 - **License:** UNLICENSED - **Version published:** 2026-06-29T06:24:09.737Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-06-30T15:00:00.099Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-07-09T23:10:15.280Z - **Known versions:** 3 - **Latest version:** 1.0.3 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** Node.js CDN 静态资源后台同步 native worker - **Maintainers:** cdn-sync - **Keywords:** cdn, static-assets, sync, native, background-worker - **Runtime engines:** node: \>=18 - **Supported OS:** linux, darwin - **Supported CPU:** x64, arm64 - **Artifact files:** 8 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 35,818,502 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [Repository]() - [Homepage]() - [Issues]() - [OpenSSF/OSV advisory]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]()
