AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Source confirms automatic installation-time disclosure of host and project identifiers to a fixed external collector without installer consent. This meets the installation beacon blocking policy. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-26T09:44:10.090Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-26T09:44:40.423Z - **Download time:** 770 ms - **Static scan time:** 22 ms - **AI review time:** 29540 ms - **Total time:** 30333 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:** Installation triggers an automatic beacon that discloses machine and package-location metadata to a fixed external collector. Importing the package entrypoint triggers the same disclosure. - **Trigger:** Package installation or import of index.js. - **Impact:** The collector receives identifying information about the installing machine and project without an evident consent gate. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, beacon.cjs, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-26T09:44:40.423Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** beacon.cjs collects hostname, install path, working directory, and runtime version, then sends them in an HTTP POST. - **Attack narrative:** The postinstall hook runs beacon.cjs, which collects the machine hostname, package install path, working directory, and runtime version and posts them to a fixed external endpoint. The package entrypoint also invokes the beacon when imported. The source shows no consent gate for either activation path. - **Rationale:** Source confirms automatic installation-time disclosure of host and project identifiers to a fixed external collector without installer consent. This meets the installation beacon blocking policy. - **Files touched:** package.json, beacon.cjs, index.js - **Network endpoints:** http://185.158.107.175:8787/\_ah/dc ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** package.json runs beacon.cjs automatically during postinstall., beacon.cjs sends a POST request to a fixed external endpoint., The transmitted payload contains the machine hostname, install path, working directory, and runtime version., Running beacon.cjs directly invokes the send; importing index.js also invokes it. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @drone-js-ext/core@99.0.1. - Avoid installing @drone-js-ext/core@99.0.1. 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
