The CLI itself is separately user-invoked. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-24T21:19:15.454Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-24T21:19:36.344Z - **Download time:** 759 ms - **Static scan time:** 20 ms - **AI review time:** 20110 ms - **Total time:** 20890 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Automatic npm installation executes a host-reconnaissance probe and exfiltrates collected machine metadata. The CLI itself is separately user-invoked. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall - **Impact:** Leaks developer/CI host identity, local network addresses, paths, user names, and environment-variable inventory. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/recon.js, dist/index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-24T21:19:36.344Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **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. - **Files touched:** package.json, dist/recon.js - **Network endpoints:** http://138.68.108.20:80/cb ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
