## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — The endpoint can supply an arbitrary executable that will run as the installing user on later CLI use.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Staged Payload Carrier
- **Selected version:** 1.14.50-202607281613
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

npm postinstall fetches an unauthenticated platform archive from a fixed IP with TLS verification disabled. It extracts the archive into node\_modules and configures its binary to run when the CLI is invoked.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** npm postinstall fetches an unauthenticated platform archive from a fixed IP with TLS verification disabled. It extracts the archive into node\_modules and configures its binary to run when the CLI is invoked.

- **Trigger:** Installing @onescience/onecode; invoking onecode executes the staged binary.

- **Impact:** The endpoint can supply an arbitrary executable that will run as the installing user on later CLI use.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.mjs, platform-bootstrap.mjs, bin/onecode

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-28T08:19:11.505Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** postinstall remote binary download, extraction, and launcher linkage

- **Attack narrative:** The postinstall hook downloads a platform tgz from a hard-coded IP address while explicitly disabling TLS certificate verification. It neither pins nor verifies the archive, extracts it into node\_modules, and links its executable into bin/.onecode. The CLI launcher then spawns that executable, allowing the remote server to stage arbitrary native code for execution.

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete unverified remote payload chain activated by npm postinstall, not merely a normal packaged optional dependency. The fixed IP endpoint and disabled TLS validation make the staged executable attacker-controlled if the endpoint or connection is compromised.

- **Files touched:** package.json, postinstall.mjs, platform-bootstrap.mjs, node\_modules/onecode-linux-x64/, bin/.onecode, .platform-version, .platform-bootstrap-work, bin/onecode

- **Network endpoints:** https://218.90.133.98:4443/onecode\_tgz

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 98.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json runs postinstall.mjs during npm install., postinstall.mjs invokes ensurePlatformBinary()., platform-bootstrap.mjs downloads a versioned tgz from a fixed IP endpoint., Download disables TLS certificate validation and has no integrity verification., Downloaded archive is extracted into node\_modules and its binary is linked for execution., bin/onecode executes the linked/downloaded binary.

- **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting or unrelated file collection was found in the inspected files., No explicit exfiltration endpoint beyond the binary-download host was found.
