It also documents an interactive self-update path. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-18T21:52:49.442Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-18T21:55:06.065Z - **Download time:** 1015 ms - **Static scan time:** 225 ms - **AI review time:** 135382 ms - **Total time:** 136623 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Running yorn dynamically evaluates an obfuscated loader and opaque V8 bytecode with coding-agent capabilities. It also documents an interactive self-update path. - **Trigger:** User runs the yorn CLI. - **Impact:** Can read/edit project files and execute commands; opaque runtime prevents verification of its full behavior. - **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:** Opaque dynamically evaluated coding-agent runtime with self-update. - **Rationale:** The package is not proven malicious, but its opaque dynamically evaluated bytecode runtime combines with powerful coding-agent behavior and self-update to create unresolved risk. Warn rather than block because execution is user-invoked and no install hook or concrete attack behavior was established. - **Files touched:** dist/load.cjs, dist/yorn.jsc, ~/.yorn/agent/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for:** User-invoked CLI entrypoint targets an opaque loader., Loader immediately dynamically compiles obfuscated source with Function., Package documents an opaque V8-bytecode runtime artifact., Documented agent can read/edit files and execute commands., Documented interactive self-update runs global npm install. - **Evidence against:** No preinstall, install, or postinstall hook is declared., The described file and command access is aligned with a coding-agent CLI., No inspectable source establishes covert credential exfiltration, destructive action, or foreign agent-config mutation. ## Public findings ### 1.
