The lifecycle script fetches a Bun runtime when absent, then executes that payload. - **Trigger:** npm preinstall - **Impact:** Potential credential theft and arbitrary install-time code execution. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, setup.mjs, math\_init.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-04T12:13:41.047Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** downloads a runtime and executes an obfuscated credential/network-capable payload - **Attack narrative:** \`preinstall\` executes \`setup.mjs\`, which either invokes an existing Bun binary or downloads Bun 1.3.13 from GitHub, extracts it to a temporary directory, and runs \`math\_init.js\`. The 727KB obfuscated payload dynamically resolves Node APIs, uses child-process and filesystem capabilities, constructs authenticated network requests, and includes GitHub-token handling. This is unrelated to a navigation-menu component and creates a concrete install-time execution and credential-exfiltration chain. - **Rationale:** The package has an unconsented preinstall chain that bootstraps a runtime solely to execute a large obfuscated, credential/network-capable payload. This is concrete malicious install-time behavior, not package-aligned UI code. - **Files touched:** package.json, setup.mjs, math\_init.js, /etc/os-release, temporary Bun download directory - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/releases/download/bun-v1.3.13/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs \`node setup.mjs\` during preinstall., setup.mjs downloads Bun from GitHub and executes \`math\_init.js\` at install time., math\_init.js is a 727KB heavily obfuscated executable payload., math\_init.js uses child\_process, fs/os/path, dynamic Function/eval, HTTP logic, and token-handling code., The payload contains request construction with authorization data and GitHub-token paths. - **Evidence against:** The declared package entrypoints are a Qlik/React navigation-menu bundle., The visible runtime bundle’s fetch usage is Qlik API functionality, separate from the install payload. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts.
