## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — An external recipient receives identifiers about the machine and package installation without an affirmative consent gate.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Block by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Malware
- **Selected version:** 3.0.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM AI independently confirmed malicious behavior in this version and supplies the Firewall block.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The automatic install-time disclosure of host and installation identifiers to a hard-coded external recipient is a concrete unconsented installation beacon. This supports blocking publication as install-hook abuse.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The package automatically discloses machine and installation metadata to a hard-coded external address. This occurs during installation and when the package entry point is imported.

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

- **Impact:** An external recipient receives identifiers about the machine and package installation without an affirmative consent gate.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-26T07:26:09.383Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** beacon.cjs collects the hostname, installation path, working directory, and npm version, then sends them in a POST request to the configured address.

- **Attack narrative:** The postinstall hook runs beacon.cjs, which sends host and installation metadata to a hard-coded external IP address. Importing the package entry point also fires the beacon, with no opt-in guard shown in the inspected source.

- **Rationale:** The automatic install-time disclosure of host and installation identifiers to a hard-coded external recipient is a concrete unconsented installation beacon. This supports blocking publication as install-hook abuse.

- **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:** package.json runs beacon.cjs automatically during postinstall., beacon.cjs sends a POST request to a hard-coded external IP address., The beacon includes the machine hostname, install path, working directory, and npm version metadata., Importing index.js also calls the beacon without an opt-in.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @greenlake/auth@3.0.0.

- Avoid installing @greenlake/auth@3.0.0. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
- If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment.
