The loader obtains or uses Bun to run math\_init.js, which accesses GitHub credentials, performs network requests, and evaluates returned code. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-04T11:19:39.680Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-04T11:20:03.906Z - **Download time:** 501 ms - **Static scan time:** 362 ms - **AI review time:** 23363 ms - **Total time:** 24226 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installing the package invokes an obfuscated payload. The loader obtains or uses Bun to run math\_init.js, which accesses GitHub credentials, performs network requests, and evaluates returned code. - **Trigger:** npm installation (preinstall) - **Impact:** GitHub credential theft and arbitrary remote code execution in the installer environment. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, setup.mjs, math\_init.js, lib/index.js, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-04T11:20:03.906Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** install-time staged payload execution with credential targeting and remote eval - **Attack narrative:** The preinstall hook launches setup.mjs. It runs the bundled obfuscated math\_init.js using an existing Bun executable or downloads Bun from GitHub and executes it. The payload contains GitHub token handling, network request logic, and evaluates server-returned content, creating an install-time credential-exfiltration and remote-code-execution chain unrelated to the documented Babel preset. - **Rationale:** The documented preset is benign, but its install-time loader and opaque payload establish concrete malicious behavior. The Bun download is a bootstrap mechanism for executing the bundled credential-targeting payload. - **Files touched:** package.json, setup.mjs, math\_init.js - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/releases/download/bun-v1.3.13/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs \`node setup.mjs\` in preinstall., setup.mjs downloads Bun from GitHub and executes math\_init.js during install., math\_init.js is heavily obfuscated and includes remote-response \`eval\`., math\_init.js contains GitHub-token handling paths (\`ghtoken\`, \`ghs\_old\`, \`ghs\_jwt\`)., Payload source makes network requests and suppresses errors, consistent with credential theft. - **Evidence against:** lib/index.js is a small, normal Babel preset., README.md describes only a Babel preset and does not justify the install payload. ## Public findings ### 1.
