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. Source inspection confirms concrete install-time exfiltration behavior, not just suspicious primitives. Claimed benign research intent does not remove the firewall risk from unconsented lifecycle beacons in an internal-looking dependency-confusion package. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-10T08:44:13.276Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-10T08:44:40.101Z - **Download time:** 760 ms - **Static scan time:** 20 ms - **AI review time:** 26044 ms - **Total time:** 26825 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:** Install-time lifecycle hooks perform an out-of-band dependency-confusion beacon. The beacon exfiltrates host-identifying environment and network metadata to a researcher-controlled endpoint without installer consent. - **Trigger:** npm preinstall and postinstall during package installation - **Impact:** Leaks host/user/cwd/internal IP/registry metadata and confirms dependency-confusion execution in victim environments. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, callback.js, index.js, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-10T08:44:40.101Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** install-time DNS and HTTP/HTTPS data exfiltration beacon - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package runs callback.js in both preinstall and postinstall. The script builds a JSON payload from local host identifiers and package/install context, encodes part into DNS labels, and also POSTs the full payload over HTTPS and HTTP to qmktj627.instances.httpworkbench.com. This is framed as a bug-bounty PoC, but it is still unconsented install-time exfiltration from dependency-confusion resolution. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms concrete install-time exfiltration behavior, not just suspicious primitives. Claimed benign research intent does not remove the firewall risk from unconsented lifecycle beacons in an internal-looking dependency-confusion package. - **Files touched:** package.json, callback.js - **Network endpoints:** qmktj627.instances.httpworkbench.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** package.json defines preinstall and postinstall hooks running callback.js., callback.js collects hostname, username, cwd, \_\_dirname, platform, internal IPv4s, and npm registry., callback.js sends collected host data to qmktj627.instances.httpworkbench.com via DNS and HTTP/HTTPS POST., README/package metadata describe this as dependency-confusion proof-of-execution for an internal-looking package scope. - **Evidence against:** index.js is a no-op Proxy stub and does not collect data on import., No file reads beyond package.json and no destructive filesystem actions observed., No child\_process, eval, dynamic code loading, native binaries, or persistence observed. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @axteams-lund-it/cookie-consent-web-component@99.0.0. - Avoid installing @axteams-lund-it/cookie-consent-web-component@99.0.0. 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.
