It registers package-related commands for prompt submission and post-tool-use events. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall during package installation. - **Impact:** Future Claude sessions can execute the configured commands across projects without an installation-time consent prompt. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-28T02:33:16.882Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The lifecycle script resolves binaries, edits the global Claude settings file, appends command hooks, and writes the file. - **Attack narrative:** The package lifecycle hook runs automatically after installation. If both named binaries are available, it modifies the global Claude settings file and installs command hooks for prompt submission and post-tool-use events. This is an unconsented mutation of a broad AI-agent control surface. - **Rationale:** The automatic lifecycle hook persistently modifies global Claude command hooks without an explicit user setup action. This meets the policy threshold for install-hook abuse. - **Files touched:** ~/.claude/settings.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The package declares an automatic postinstall script., The postinstall script locates external hook binaries without user interaction., The script opens the global Claude settings file., The script adds command hooks for tool use and prompt submission, then saves the settings. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @telora/mcp-products@0.22.159. - Avoid installing @telora/mcp-products@0.22.159. 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.
