AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The postinstall hook triggers an outbound report containing identifying host and installation details to a fixed external endpoint. This is an unconsented installation beacon and supports blocking publication. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-26T09:44:10.102Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-26T09:44:31.136Z - **Download time:** 765 ms - **Static scan time:** 21 ms - **AI review time:** 20247 ms - **Total time:** 21034 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:** The package automatically discloses host and installation metadata to a hardcoded external endpoint. The source provides no consent gate for this transmission. - **Trigger:** Package installation runs the postinstall script; importing index.js also calls the beacon. - **Impact:** The recipient learns the installing machine's hostname, package installation path, working directory, and npm/runtime version. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, beacon.cjs, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-26T09:44:31.136Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** beacon.cjs builds a metadata payload and sends it in an HTTP POST request to a fixed IP address. - **Attack narrative:** Installation automatically reports host and package installation metadata to a hardcoded external endpoint. Importing the package also triggers the report. The inspected source shows no consent gate. - **Rationale:** The postinstall hook triggers an outbound report containing identifying host and installation details to a fixed external endpoint. This is an unconsented installation beacon and supports blocking publication. - **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 hardcoded external IP address., The request payload includes the machine hostname, install path, working directory, and npm/runtime version., Importing index.js also calls the beacon. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @drone-js-ext/vip-badge@0.0.1. - Avoid installing @drone-js-ext/vip-badge@0.0.1. 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.
