Interactive startup can contact npm and launch a global package update. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-18T21:53:51.604Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-18T21:55:06.065Z - **Download time:** 768 ms - **Static scan time:** 521 ms - **AI review time:** 73171 ms - **Total time:** 74461 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Running \`yorn\` executes an obfuscated loader and opaque V8 bytecode with the caller's privileges. Interactive startup can contact npm and launch a global package update. - **Trigger:** User runs the \`yorn\` CLI interactively. - **Impact:** The shipped executable cannot be meaningfully audited; its auto-update path can replace the global CLI. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/load.cjs, dist/yorn.jsc, README.md - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-18T21:55:06.065Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Dynamic Function loader executes opaque bytecode and performs self-update. - **Rationale:** No concrete malicious behavior was proven, so blocking is not justified. The active opaque bytecode and automatic global update prevent a clean verdict. - **Files touched:** dist/load.cjs, dist/yorn.jsc, ~/.yorn/agent/auth.json - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** The user-invoked bin targets an obfuscated dynamic-code loader., The package ships a 15 MB opaque V8 bytecode payload., Interactive startup is documented to run a global npm self-update., Opaque runtime code includes child-process and registry-update markers. - **Evidence against:** No preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook is declared., The CLI, credential storage, and update behavior are documented., Screenshot helpers are separate skill assets and require explicit use. ## Public findings ### 1.

Public source snippet (untrusted): ```markdown Every interactive start, yorn compares its own version with the latest published version of `@siwatfa/yorn` on the npm registry. When a newer version exists, yorn opens a new terminal window that runs the global install (for example `npm install -g @siwatfa/yorn@latest`) and exits the outdated instance. ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** prepublishOnly - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** @siwatfa/yorn - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.36 - **License:** MIT - **Version published:** 2026-08-15T00:42:06.322Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-17T10:12:13.586Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-18T21:55:06.065Z - **Known versions:** 149 - **Latest version:** 0.0.1-security - **Appeal under review:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OSV advisory]() - [ADVISORY]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]()
