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. Installation automatically runs a preinstall hook that reports host-identifying data. This is an unconsented install-time action. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-27T14:56:30.786Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-27T14:57:03.786Z - **Download time:** 512 ms - **Static scan time:** 7 ms - **AI review time:** 32481 ms - **Total time:** 33000 ms 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:** Installation automatically runs a preinstall hook that reports host-identifying data. This is an unconsented install-time action. - **Trigger:** npm installation, before package installation completes. - **Impact:** A local process listening on the specified port can receive the installing machine's host and user identifiers. - **Evidence paths:** package.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-27T14:57:03.786Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook invokes Node, reads operating-system host and user information, and makes an HTTP request while hiding errors. - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package activates its preinstall hook without a user command. The hook gathers the machine hostname and current account name, then transmits them in an HTTP request to a loopback listener. Error output is redirected away, reducing visibility of failures. The hook's diagnostic text also indicates dependency-confusion execution. - **Rationale:** The package contains concrete, automatic install-hook data collection and transmission. Its loopback destination does not remove the unconsented collection behavior or the risk from a local listener. - **Files touched:** package.json - **Network endpoints:** http://127.0.0.1:8099/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The package metadata identifies @rutxploit-sec/waves-navigation version 1.0.0., A preinstall hook runs inline Node code, collects the host name and local user name, and sends them to a loopback HTTP listener while suppressing errors. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @rutxploit-sec/waves-navigation@1.0.0. - Avoid installing @rutxploit-sec/waves-navigation@1.0.0. 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.
