The preinstall hook only checks the Node.js version. - **Trigger:** Caller sends an image or video through the library. - **Impact:** Recipients can receive unsolicited forwarded-newsletter attribution on user media. - **Evidence paths:** lib/Utils/messages.js, package.json, engine-requirements.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-23T06:11:45.569Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** unconsented newsletter-attribution injection - **Attack narrative:** When a consumer uses this library to prepare an image or video message, it unconditionally attaches a newsletter annotation. The annotation defaults are obscured as hex strings and identify a package-controlled newsletter unless the consumer sets override environment variables. This silently changes outbound user content for author promotion; the install hook itself is benign. - **Rationale:** The package contains concrete, automatic modification of user-generated outbound media for undisclosed author attribution. This is not justified by its WhatsApp client functionality and is intentionally obscured. - **Files touched:** lib/Utils/messages.js, package.json, engine-requirements.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 92.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Image and video uploads are silently given a newsletter annotation., The injected newsletter identity has hard-coded hex defaults, merely overrideable through environment variables. - **Evidence against:** The preinstall script only enforces Node.js 20+., No credential harvesting, remote payload execution, or AI-agent configuration writes found. ## Public findings ### 1.
