LPM AI assessed this version as suspicious; the assessments disagree. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Trusted malware advisory block - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Malware - **Selected version:** 99.99.41 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** OpenSSF/OSV Malicious Advisory (OpenSSF/OSV) OpenSSF/OSV malware advisory MAL-2026-17873 identifies this version as malicious and supplies the Firewall block. LPM AI assessed this version as suspicious; the assessments disagree. Independent AI assessment: suspicious. LPM AI assessed this version as suspicious; the assessments disagree. OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-17873 confirms this npm version as malicious. npm user 'priyashareek' published this package in a dependency confusion campaign against the internal scopes @accenturecodefoundry and @newspage. The publisher used 99.99.x versions to outrank the internal packages. 0.0.0-stage and 99.99.1 are empty placeholders. In versions 99.99.4 and 99.99.41, index.js sends an HTTPS GET to attacker-controlled host accenture-npm.azurewebsites.net (/async, /libx)... ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 82.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-16T11:23:43.673Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-16T11:24:32.480Z - **Download time:** 1028 ms - **Static scan time:** 5 ms - **AI review time:** 47773 ms - **Total time:** 48807 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:** Loading index.js sends an automatic HTTPS request to a fixed external callback. The source shows no explicit host, user, or credential data in the request, so the unresolved concern is limited to callback telemetry and the caller's network address. - **Trigger:** A consumer loads index.js, including through package resolution. - **Impact:** The callback can observe the caller's network address and that the module was loaded; the source does not establish further data collection. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-16T11:24:32.480Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The module calls https.get with a fixed host and path during module evaluation. - **Rationale:** The target source makes an automatic network callback when loaded, with no apparent functional need, but it shows no explicit collection of host, user, or credential data. This is an unresolved telemetry risk warranting a warning rather than a publish block. - **Files touched:** package.json, index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://accenture-npm.azurewebsites.net/libx ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 82.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for AI warning decision:** package.json defines empty preinstall and postinstall scripts., Loading index.js automatically sends an HTTPS request to a fixed callback URL., That request does not add explicit host, user, or credential values., The investigation file identifies supplemental snapshots as files not shipped in this package. - **Evidence against:** The inspected callback has no shown package function that needs the network request. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @newspage/libx-amount@99.99.41. - Avoid installing @newspage/libx-amount@99.99.41. 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:** .lpm-investigation-context/evidence.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Independent evidence contains separately hash/SRI-verified related snapshots, not target-shipped files. Inspect their source to assess callback purpose and activation; no verdict is implied. ### 2. 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. ### 3. 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.

High: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 100.0% - **Path:** .lpm-investigation-context/snapshot-0/index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Compare the separately verified Accenture lifecycle callback and this module callback.
