## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — A network attacker or the fixed remote server can supply executable code that is later run by the package launcher.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Install Hook Abuse
- **Selected version:** 1.14.50-202609011428
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Installing the package fetches an unauthenticated remote native archive, extracts it, and installs an executable. It also replaces hidden asset paths in the package root with links to the downloaded content.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installing the package fetches an unauthenticated remote native archive, extracts it, and installs an executable. It also replaces hidden asset paths in the package root with links to the downloaded content.

- **Trigger:** npm installation, through the postinstall lifecycle hook.

- **Impact:** A network attacker or the fixed remote server can supply executable code that is later run by the package launcher.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-14T04:35:17.830Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** TLS-bypassing remote payload download and native executable installation.

- **Attack narrative:** During npm postinstall, the package invokes a bootstrapper that downloads a versioned archive from a hard-coded IP address while disabling TLS certificate verification. It follows redirects, extracts the archive with tar, moves the result into node\_modules, marks the native binary executable, and links it for later execution by the onecode launcher. The archive has no signature, checksum, or other integrity verification.

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete automatic install-time remote code delivery path with certificate verification disabled and no payload integrity check. The postinstall also mutates hidden asset links, increasing the scope of untrusted downloaded content.

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

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

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** The package automatically runs a postinstall script., Postinstall downloads a platform archive from a hard-coded IP address with TLS certificate checks disabled., The downloaded archive is extracted and its executable is installed with execute permission., Install code replaces and creates .opencode and .oneskills links in the package root., The install hook invokes the platform-binary setup routine.

- **Evidence against:** The visible launcher only starts the selected platform binary when the user runs the onecode command., No credential harvesting or data exfiltration appears in the inspected JavaScript source.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @onescience/onecode@1.14.50-202609011428.
