The mutation runs asynchronously in a detached child process and adds peer dependencies. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-20T15:34:48.703Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-20T15:35:20.391Z - **Download time:** 508 ms - **Static scan time:** 68 ms - **AI review time:** 31111 ms - **Total time:** 31688 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installing the package mutates the consuming project’s package.json without consent. The mutation runs asynchronously in a detached child process and adds peer dependencies. - **Trigger:** npm install runs the postinstall lifecycle hook. - **Impact:** Unexpected dependency changes can alter the consumer supply chain and persist beyond installation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-20T15:35:20.391Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** detached postinstall project-manifest dependency injection - **Attack narrative:** On installation, the lifecycle hook resolves the consumer project from INIT\_CWD, creates its package.json if missing, and spawns a detached, silent Node process. After a delay, that child inserts every peer dependency from this package into the consumer manifest. This is an unconsented install-time modification of a foreign project and is deliberately decoupled from npm’s lifecycle process. - **Rationale:** The package contains concrete, stealthy postinstall mutation of the consuming project’s dependency manifest. No network exfiltration is needed for this install-hook supply-chain abuse to be malicious. - **Files touched:** \/package.json, scripts/postinstall.cjs, package.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** postinstall executes automatically during npm installation., It targets the invoking project via INIT\_CWD and creates its package.json if absent., A detached hidden Node child waits, then injects this package’s peer dependencies into the project manifest. - **Evidence against:** No network endpoint or credential collection is present in inspected package files., Published runtime modules appear to provide Fastify admin/model utilities. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = node scripts/postinstall.cjs ``` ### 2. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = node scripts/postinstall.cjs ``` ### 3. Low: Non Install Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 80.0% Package declares lifecycle scripts that are not normally run for registry tarball installs. ### 4. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 5. Medium: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references environment variables. ### 6. Low: Filesystem - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 70.0% Package source references filesystem APIs. ### 7. Low: High Entropy Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 55.0% Package source contains high-entropy string patterns. ### 8. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 70.0% Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean. ### 9. High: Known Malware Source Similarity - **Category:** Static - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Path:** scripts/postinstall.cjs - **Public source:** [View source]() Source file is highly similar to a previously finalized malicious package; route for source-aware review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript matchType = normalized_sha256 matchedPackage = @fastify-core/single@1.0.2 matchedPath = scripts/postinstall.cjs matchedIdentity = npm:QGZhc3RpZnktY29yZS9zaW5nbGU:1.0.2 similarity = 1.000 summary = normalized source hash matched finalized malicious source ``` ### 10. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** scripts/postinstall.cjs - **Public source:** [View source]() It targets the invoking project via INIT\_CWD and creates its package.json if absent. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript const projectRoot = process.env.INIT_CWD || (() => { ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** postinstall, prepublishOnly - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 20 - **Development dependencies:** 26 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 20 ### Published dependency entries - @fastify-core/base ^1.0.1 (PeerDependency) - @fastify-core/elfinder ^1.0.0 (PeerDependency) - @fastify/cookie ^11.1.2 (PeerDependency) - @fastify/mysql ^5.0.2 (PeerDependency) - @fastify/session ^11.1.2 (PeerDependency) - adm-zip ^0.6.0 (PeerDependency) - archiver ^8.0.0 (PeerDependency) - argon2 ^0.45.0 (PeerDependency) - base-64 ^1.0.0 (PeerDependency) - date-fns ^4.4.0 (PeerDependency) - date-fns-tz ^3.2.0 (PeerDependency) - decimal.js ^10.6.0 (PeerDependency) - dotenv ^17.4.2 (PeerDependency) - exceljs ^4.4.0 (PeerDependency) - fastify ^5.10.0 (PeerDependency) - jsonwebtoken ^9.0.3 (PeerDependency) - mime-types ^3.0.2 (PeerDependency) - mysql2 ^3.23.3 (PeerDependency) - sharp ^0.35.3 (PeerDependency) - ua-parser-js ^2.0.10 (PeerDependency) ## Package metadata - **Package:** @fastify-core/single - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.4 - **License:** ISC - **Version published:** 2026-08-19T12:20:56.139Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-19T02:05:13.281Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-20T15:35:31.170Z - **Known versions:** 4 - **Latest version:** 1.0.4 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Author:** MIT - **Runtime engines:** node: \>=24 - **Artifact files:** 13 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 54,149 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]()
