It installs the archive's executable into node\_modules; the package command later runs it. - **Trigger:** npm installation followed by running the onecode command - **Impact:** A server or network attacker can supply a native executable that runs with the installing user's privileges when the command is invoked. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.mjs, platform-bootstrap.mjs, bin/onecode - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-14T08:38:13.283Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Postinstall remote native payload download and launcher execution - **Attack narrative:** npm automatically invokes postinstall, which calls the bootstrapper. The bootstrapper downloads a versioned archive from a raw IP address with certificate verification disabled, extracts it into node\_modules, and marks its native binary executable. The launcher then resolves and runs that installed binary. No hash, signature, or trusted registry verification is present, so the remote endpoint controls executable code delivered through installation. - **Rationale:** This is an automatic lifecycle delivery path for an unverified remote native payload, with TLS verification explicitly disabled. The downloaded binary is subsequently executed by the package launcher. - **Files touched:** postinstall.mjs, platform-bootstrap.mjs, bin/.onecode, node\_modules/onecode-linux-x64/bin/onecode, node\_modules/onecode-linux-x64 - **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 runs a postinstall hook automatically., The hook downloads a platform archive from a fixed IP address with TLS verification disabled., The downloaded archive is extracted into node\_modules and its native binary is made executable., The launcher executes the cached downloaded binary when the onecode command is run. - **Evidence against:** No credential collection or outbound data exfiltration appears in the inspected JavaScript source., The visible JavaScript does not itself execute the downloaded binary during postinstall. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @onescience/onecode@1.14.50-202609141631. - Avoid installing @onescience/onecode@1.14.50-202609141631. 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.
