## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation automatically sends host and project identifying metadata to a fixed external endpoint. Importing the package also starts the same beacon.

- **Trigger:** Package installation or importing index.js.

- **Impact:** The recipient learns identifying details about the machine and package installation.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, beacon.cjs, index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-23T00:50:34.607Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The beacon collects the machine hostname and installation and working directory paths, then POSTs them to a hard-coded IP address without an affirmative consent check.

- **Attack narrative:** The postinstall hook starts a beacon that sends machine and project identifying metadata to a fixed external endpoint. Importing the package also activates the beacon.

- **Rationale:** The package performs automatic, consent-free installation tracking to an unrelated fixed endpoint using identifying host and project data. This verified install-time disclosure 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:** The package automatically runs a postinstall script that starts the beacon., The beacon sends a POST to a fixed external IP address., The payload collects the machine hostname and installation and project paths., The beacon sends the collected payload without an installer consent check., Importing the package also activates the beacon.
