Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Importing the library conditionally executes a JavaScript configuration file located outside its package directory. This is an unexpected import-time code-execution surface. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 85.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-30T18:18:32.496Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-30T18:19:40.882Z - **Download time:** 1018 ms - **Static scan time:** 10876 ms - **AI review time:** 56491 ms - **Total time:** 68386 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:** Importing the library conditionally executes a JavaScript configuration file located outside its package directory. This is an unexpected import-time code-execution surface. - **Trigger:** Importing lib/index.js while the resolved external config.js exists. - **Impact:** Code in that external file runs with the importing application's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** lib/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-30T18:19:40.882Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Conditional dynamic require of an external configuration module. - **Rationale:** The install hook is a transparent Node-version check, and the network and media code are aligned with a WhatsApp client library. However, the automatic external config.js require at import time is a concrete unsafe code-execution surface. - **Files touched:** lib/index.js, ../../config.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 85.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The main module automatically loads and executes a config.js file outside the package when that file exists., This external module load occurs during ordinary package import, before an application calls the library., The package has an automatic preinstall hook, increasing the importance of its install-time behavior. - **Evidence against:** The preinstall hook only checks the running Node.js major version and exits on unsupported versions., The media helper uses ffmpeg with fixed arguments for video-thumbnail generation., The observed network functions are WhatsApp/media-library operations invoked by library functions; no credential harvesting or covert exfiltration was found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @musteqeem/baileys@1.0.5. - Review the evidence and your use of @musteqeem/baileys@1.0.5 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
