AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Direct source inspection confirms an automatic preinstall-time DNS exfiltration of the installer hostname to an OAST endpoint. This is concrete malicious behavior, not a scanner-only inference. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-16T09:35:45.570Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-16T09:36:16.866Z - **Download time:** 770 ms - **Static scan time:** 11 ms - **AI review time:** 30514 ms - **Total time:** 31296 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:** Installing the package automatically executes a DNS lookup. The lookup embeds the installing machine's hostname in a request to an external OAST domain, exposing host metadata without user consent. - **Trigger:** npm installation, before package installation completes - **Impact:** Discloses the installer hostname to an attacker-controlled DNS endpoint. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-16T09:36:16.866Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** preinstall shell command exfiltrates \`hostname\` through DNS - **Attack narrative:** On npm installation, the \`preinstall\` script invokes \`nslookup\` for a domain constructed from \`$(hostname)\` and an external OAST endpoint. DNS resolution sends the hostname-derived label to that endpoint, enabling unconsented collection of machine-identifying metadata. The package has no functional source code indicating a legitimate reason for this install-time network action. - **Rationale:** Direct source inspection confirms an automatic preinstall-time DNS exfiltration of the installer hostname to an OAST endpoint. This is concrete malicious behavior, not a scanner-only inference. - **Files touched:** package.json, index.js - **Network endpoints:** hi3wlp8szem0i8web8btphmah1nsbiz7.oastify.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** \`package.json\` defines an npm \`preinstall\` lifecycle hook., The hook runs \`nslookup\` with \`$(hostname)\` embedded in a DNS name., The DNS target is an OAST host, consistent with out-of-band host-data exfiltration., \`index.js\` contains only a comment; the malicious behavior is install-time. - **Evidence against:** No additional executable source, payload, or persistence mechanism was found., No package files besides \`package.json\` and inert \`index.js\` are present. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @ddh-libraries/analytics@99.0.0. - Avoid installing @ddh-libraries/analytics@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.
