No Brainer SDK — GraphQL type generator (Shift Forex scoped build)

AI Security Review

scanned 4h ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Automatic npm installation executes a host-reconnaissance probe and exfiltrates collected machine metadata. The CLI itself is separately user-invoked.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.

Trigger

npm postinstall

Impact

Leaks developer/CI host identity, local network addresses, paths, user names, and environment-variable inventory.

Mechanism

postinstall host fingerprinting and HTTP exfiltration

Attack narrative

On installation, package.json invokes dist/recon.js. That script inventories host and CI details, usernames, home and working directories, IPv4 interfaces, DNS domain, and all environment-variable names including names suggestive of credentials, then POSTs the JSON to a hard-coded external IP. Error suppression prevents installation from signaling the activity.

Rationale

This is concrete, unconsented install-time reconnaissance and exfiltration unrelated to the advertised GraphQL generator.

Evidence for block

package.json runs dist/recon.js in postinstall.
dist/recon.js sends install telemetry to 138.68.108.20:80/cb.
It collects hostname, usernames, home/cwd, network IPs, DNS domain, and environment-variable names.
The probe runs automatically and suppresses errors with || true.

Evidence against

dist/index.js is a user-invoked GraphQL type generator.
The CLI only contacts the endpoint supplied by its user.
