AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Direct source inspection confirms two automatic install hooks that exfiltrate host and environment metadata to an unrelated callback domain. The package provides no corresponding runtime functionality. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-13T20:34:08.608Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-13T20:34:39.852Z - **Download time:** 507 ms - **Static scan time:** 9 ms - **AI review time:** 30727 ms - **Total time:** 31244 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installation automatically collects local identity and environment metadata, then transmits it through HTTP and DNS. The package has no substantive runtime implementation. - **Trigger:** npm preinstall or install lifecycle execution - **Impact:** Leaks username, hostname, working directory, and package identity to a third-party callback domain during installation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-13T20:34:39.852Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** install-time metadata collection with HTTP/DNS exfiltration - **Attack narrative:** On npm installation, both lifecycle hooks build a base64 value from the current username, hostname, working directory, and package name. They send it to a callback domain with curl and encode package data into a DNS lookup. This is undisclosed install-time exfiltration, while the declared entrypoint is empty. - **Rationale:** Direct source inspection confirms two automatic install hooks that exfiltrate host and environment metadata to an unrelated callback domain. The package provides no corresponding runtime functionality. - **Files touched:** package.json, index.js, README.md - **Network endpoints:** https://$pkgsub.callback.m0chan.co.uk/$b64, $pkgdns.$pkgsub.callback.m0chan.co.uk ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** preinstall sends encoded username, hostname, working directory, and package name to a remote callback host., install repeats the same network and DNS exfiltration routine. - **Evidence against:** index.js only exports an empty object; no legitimate runtime functionality was found., README contains only a generic description and does not document the install-time behavior. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @hzero-front-ui/hzero-ui@99.99.99. - Avoid installing @hzero-front-ui/hzero-ui@99.99.99. 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
