Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — A remote party can interact with the installer environment and receive shell output. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Install Hook Abuse - **Selected version:** 19999.1339.2 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) Trusted malware advisory MAL-2026-16132 identifies this version as malicious. 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 a network-connected interactive shell and posts its output remotely. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-11T12:37:20.103Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-11T12:37:51.467Z - **Download time:** 505 ms - **Static scan time:** 8 ms - **AI review time:** 30850 ms - **Total time:** 31364 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 a network-connected interactive shell and posts its output remotely. - **Trigger:** npm installation, via the preinstall lifecycle hook - **Impact:** A remote party can interact with the installer environment and receive shell output. - **Evidence paths:** package.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-11T12:37:51.467Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** reverse shell and HTTP output exfiltration - **Attack narrative:** On installation, npm runs the package's preinstall command. It invokes interactive Bash with standard input and output redirected to a TCP connection at 147.93.157.202:8080, creating a reverse-shell-style channel. The command also pipes output to curl, which POSTs it to the listed canarytokens URL. This is unconsented install-time remote command access and data transmission. - **Rationale:** The only package source defines a preinstall reverse-shell-style command with remote HTTP posting. This is concrete malicious install-hook behavior. - **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 automatic preinstall hook launches an interactive Bash session connected to a remote IP address., The same hook sends captured command output to a remote HTTP endpoint using curl. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @nimbusedge/auth@19999.1339.2. - Avoid installing @nimbusedge/auth@19999.1339.2. 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.
