No unconsented install-time attack surface or exfiltration was confirmed. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-13T21:35:15.624Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-13T21:37:22.995Z - **Download time:** 762 ms - **Static scan time:** 8499 ms - **AI review time:** 118109 ms - **Total time:** 127371 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** The package contains an opt-in WhatsApp anti-detection capability, including identity randomization and proxy rotation. No unconsented install-time attack surface or exfiltration was confirmed. - **Trigger:** A runtime caller enables antiBan or imports and configures AntiBan components. - **Impact:** Can facilitate evasion of WhatsApp platform anti-abuse controls. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, engine-requirements.js, lib/Socket/index.js, lib/AntiBan/deviceFingerprint.js, lib/AntiBan/proxyRotator.js, lib/AntiBan/patch.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-13T21:37:22.995Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** WhatsApp ban-evasion through behavioral, identity, and proxy manipulation. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete dangerous evasion capability, but source inspection found no automatic malicious install behavior, exfiltration, or remote code execution. Warn rather than block because activation is runtime opt-in. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Optional AntiBan runtime path is bundled despite the manifest claiming no anti-ban., AntiBan randomizes device identities to evade client fingerprinting., Proxy rotation is designed around ban detection and residential/4G proxies. - **Evidence against:** Preinstall only checks the Node major version., AntiBan is disabled by default and requires caller configuration., No automatic credential exfiltration, remote payload execution, or install-time foreign-file mutation found., No bin or lifecycle hook invokes the bundled patch CLI. ## Public findings ### 1.
