Firewall keeps the version blocked under its trusted-intelligence policy. An AI recommendation to allow or warn does not override that advisory. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Installing the package automatically starts an interactive shell connected to a remote host. It also sends piped data to an external HTTP endpoint. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-11T10:54:37.217Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-11T10:55:04.276Z - **Download time:** 780 ms - **Static scan time:** 8 ms - **AI review time:** 26270 ms - **Total time:** 27059 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:** Installing the package automatically starts an interactive shell connected to a remote host. It also sends piped data to an external HTTP endpoint. - **Trigger:** npm installation invokes preinstall - **Impact:** A remote party can interact with the installing user's shell and receive data during installation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-11T10:55:04.276Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Install-time reverse shell and HTTP data posting - **Attack narrative:** On npm installation, the preinstall command runs Bash in interactive mode and redirects its input and output through a TCP connection to 147.93.157.202 on port 8080. The command also pipes data into curl, which posts it to canarytokens.com. This is an automatic install-time remote-control and outbound-data behavior. - **Rationale:** The manifest contains a concrete preinstall reverse-shell command with an additional external POST. This behavior is unrelated to normal authentication package installation and executes without user interaction. - **Files touched:** package.json - **Network endpoints:** 147.93.157.202:8080, http://canarytokens.com/terms/7dc94zmd3so67n5vbz5bxmt7v/contact.php ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The preinstall hook launches an interactive Bash session connected to a remote TCP address., The same install hook posts piped data to a third-party HTTP endpoint. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @nimbusedge/auth@19999.1337.6. - Avoid installing @nimbusedge/auth@19999.1337.6. 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.
