## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Compromise of developer credentials and arbitrary code execution during dependency installation.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 1.6.1
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The preinstall hook deliberately bootstraps and executes a large obfuscated payload with credential-token handling and remote evaluated code. This is concrete malicious install-time behavior, not required by the package’s documented browser auth functionality.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious

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:** npm installation executes an obfuscated secondary payload. The hook obtains or invokes Bun, then runs code that handles GitHub-style tokens and dynamically evaluates fetched content.

- **Trigger:** npm preinstall

- **Impact:** Compromise of developer credentials and arbitrary code execution during dependency installation.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, setup.mjs, math\_init.js, dist/cjs/auth.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-04T11:30:38.187Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** remote runtime bootstrap, credential collection, and evaluated payload execution

- **Attack narrative:** Installing the package runs setup.mjs, which downloads or uses Bun and executes the obfuscated math\_init.js payload. That payload includes GitHub-token-oriented handling, process execution, network fetches, and eval of fetched content, creating an install-time credential theft and remote-code-execution chain unrelated to the advertised auth client.

- **Rationale:** The preinstall hook deliberately bootstraps and executes a large obfuscated payload with credential-token handling and remote evaluated code. This is concrete malicious install-time behavior, not required by the package’s documented browser auth functionality.

- **Files touched:** package.json, setup.mjs, math\_init.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/releases/download/bun-v1.3.13/

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** package.json runs setup.mjs during preinstall., setup.mjs downloads Bun from GitHub and executes math\_init.js at install time., math\_init.js is a 727KB obfuscated payload unrelated to the auth library., math\_init.js contains credential-token handling (ghtoken/ghs\_jwt) and child\_process use., math\_init.js fetches data and passes returned content to eval().

- **Evidence against:** dist/cjs contains a conventional browser-side Bedrock authentication client., README.md describes the published auth API, but not the install payload.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @arv-bedrock/auth-sso@1.6.1.

- Avoid installing @arv-bedrock/auth-sso@1.6.1. 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.
