AI Security Review
scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package automatically collects hostname, username, and working directory during installation and sends them to a hard-coded external callback. This is install-time data exfiltration, so the package should be blocked.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Package installation, through the `preinstall` lifecycle script.
Impact
The callback operator can learn the installing machine's hostname, username, and current directory without the installer's consent.
Mechanism
`index.js` runs shell commands to read hostname and username, adds the working directory, then sends the values through DNS and an HTTPS request.
Attack narrative
During installation, `preinstall` runs `index.js`, which collects the hostname, username, and working directory. It embeds those values in a DNS lookup and HTTPS request to a hard-coded `oast.fun` callback, silently sending identifying host and project context to an unrelated endpoint.
AI rationale
The package automatically collects hostname, username, and working directory during installation and sends them to a hard-coded external callback. This is install-time data exfiltration, so the package should be blocked.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- The package runs `node index.js` automatically during `preinstall`.
- The install script collects the machine hostname, username, and current working directory.
- It sends that data to a hard-coded `oast.fun` host over DNS and HTTPS.
