## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Importing the browser entry auto-initializes an obfuscated Xelis miner. It retrieves configuration, connects over WebSocket, and launches Workers for computation.

- **Trigger:** A consumer loads or imports dist/common-js.js in a browser document.

- **Impact:** Unauthorized use of visitor CPU and network resources for cryptocurrency mining.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/common-js.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-16T12:39:13.351Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Obfuscated browser cryptominer with remote configuration and worker execution.

- **Attack narrative:** The package presents itself as common/lodash-like code but its declared browser entry embeds an obfuscated XelisMiner. When loaded in a document, the payload auto-creates a miner instance and invokes its start-like method. Its implementation fetches configuration, opens WebSocket connections, and creates Workers, enabling remote-directed browser mining without a user action or clear package purpose.

- **Rationale:** The runtime entry contains an automatically invoked, obfuscated Xelis mining payload with remote configuration, WebSocket, and Worker execution. This is concrete unauthorized cryptomining behavior, not a package-aligned utility.

- **Files touched:** dist/common-js.js

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** The declared main entry is a 655KB obfuscated browser payload exposing XelisMiner., On browser import it detects document and immediately constructs and starts the miner., The payload creates WebSocket connections, fetches remote configuration, and spawns Workers.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has only a prepublishOnly hook; no install-time lifecycle hook was found., No credential, environment, or local-file harvesting was confirmed.

## Public findings
