## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — This bypasses a dependency freshness safeguard and performs additional dependency resolution during installation.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Install Hook Abuse
- **Selected version:** 0.1.682
- **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.

The install hook explicitly overrides npm's minimum release-age setting to zero and starts another dependency installation. This is an install-time policy bypass unrelated to the package's banking data-model purpose, so the version should be blocked.

## Latest scan

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The install hook starts another dependency installation while explicitly disabling npm's minimum release-age delay.

- **Trigger:** Package installation, when npm runs the package's \`install\` lifecycle script.

- **Impact:** This bypasses a dependency freshness safeguard and performs additional dependency resolution during installation.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T13:51:37.459Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The script invokes \`npm i --min-release-age=0\`, which may fetch or update dependencies without the configured release-age delay.

- **Attack narrative:** During installation, the package runs a nested npm install with the minimum release-age delay set to zero. This can bypass the installer's dependency delay policy while fetching or updating dependencies.

- **Rationale:** The install hook explicitly overrides npm's minimum release-age setting to zero and starts another dependency installation. This is an install-time policy bypass unrelated to the package's banking data-model purpose, so the version should be blocked.

- **Files touched:** package.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 96.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** The \`install\` lifecycle script runs \`npm i --min-release-age=0\`, forcing a nested dependency installation with the minimum release-age delay set to zero., The package declares runtime dependencies that the nested install can resolve or update.

- **Evidence against:** The published module entry point only re-exports the package API and contains no top-level network or process behavior.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @pax2pay/model-banking@0.1.682.

- Avoid installing @pax2pay/model-banking@0.1.682. 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.
