CLI tool for Bohrium scientific computing platform
AI Security Review
scanned 13d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe postinstall hook performs automatic first-party companion tool setup by downloading and installing executable files. This creates lifecycle extension risk, but the inspected source does not establish malicious behavior or a concrete attack.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The package's postinstall hook runs during npm installation.
Impact
The downloaded tools can later run with the user's privileges; no separate attack behavior was established from inspected source.
Mechanism
The hook fetches release metadata and executable files from vendor endpoints, checks hashes, and installs the files with executable permissions.
AI rationale
The postinstall hook performs automatic first-party companion tool setup by downloading and installing executable files. This creates lifecycle extension risk, but the inspected source does not establish malicious behavior or a concrete attack.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 84.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- package.json runs postinstall automatically during installation.
- postinstall.js downloads companion tools from vendor-controlled release endpoints and installs them under the user's home directory.
- Downloaded files are made executable after hash comparison, enabling later execution as companion CLIs.
Evidence against
- The launcher selects a platform-specific optional package and starts its binary with the caller's arguments.
- The companion installer compares downloaded file hashes with expected hashes and treats failures as non-fatal.
