## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Quarantined by product-default policy — this version is not allowed through the firewall.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published

- **Selected version:** 1.6.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** OSV Malicious Advisory (OpenSSF/OSV)

OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-13630 confirms this npm version as malicious. scripts/postinstall.js is obfuscated with hex-escaped identifiers and base64-encoded strings that hide standard API names ('https', 'fs', 'child\_process', 'powershell', '.exe') and a download URL. On npm install, if process.platform === 'win32', the script decodes the base64 URL to https://files.catbox.moe/9bppy2.zip, downloads the archive to the system TEMP directory, expands it via PowerShell Expand-Archive,...
