## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** npm installation downloads an unverified native payload from a fixed IP address and installs it. The package launcher executes that payload.

- **Trigger:** Installing the package runs postinstall; invoking onecode runs the installed binary.

- **Impact:** A network attacker or the remote host can supply native code that is installed into the consumer dependency tree and later executed.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-04T03:13:02.366Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** TLS-bypassed remote native archive download, extraction, and binary launch.

- **Attack narrative:** On npm installation, postinstall calls the bootstrap. The bootstrap constructs a URL under a fixed IP address, disables TLS certificate validation, downloads a tar archive, extracts it with tar, moves it into node\_modules, and marks its binary executable. The package then links that binary into bin/.onecode, and the CLI launcher executes the resolved binary. This creates an automatic remote native-code delivery path without integrity verification.

- **Rationale:** This package has an automatic install-time chain that retrieves and installs an opaque native executable from a fixed endpoint while disabling TLS verification. The launcher executes the delivered binary, so the behavior is a concrete install-hook payload delivery risk.

- **Files touched:** postinstall.mjs, platform-bootstrap.mjs, bin/onecode, node\_modules/onecode-linux-x64, bin/.onecode, .platform-version, .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:** The postinstall hook automatically runs the bootstrap during npm installation., The bootstrap downloads a native archive from a fixed IP address with TLS certificate verification disabled., The archive is extracted and its executable is installed into node\_modules and linked as bin/.onecode., The launcher later executes the installed native binary.

- **Evidence against:** The JavaScript source does not directly harvest credentials or send local data., File mutations shown in source are scoped to the package installation directory.
