Install-time code only validates Node.js and prints a banner; runtime networking is package-aligned WhatsApp/media functionality. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-23T08:11:59.330Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-23T08:13:16.429Z - **Download time:** 1271 ms - **Static scan time:** 20337 ms - **AI review time:** 55490 ms - **Total time:** 77099 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** No confirmed malicious attack surface. Install-time code only validates Node.js and prints a banner; runtime networking is package-aligned WhatsApp/media functionality. - **Trigger:** npm install or explicit runtime use of the WhatsApp client utilities - **Impact:** No unconsented persistence, exfiltration, remote code execution, or destructive behavior established. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, engine-requirements.js, postinstall-banner.js, lib/index.js, lib/Utils/generics.js, lib/Utils/messages-media.js, lib/WABinary/constants.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-23T08:13:16.429Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** local version check/banner and user-invoked WhatsApp protocol/media operations - **Rationale:** Source inspection shows the lifecycle scripts are benign and the flagged protocol/network primitives match a WhatsApp client library. No concrete malicious execution chain was found. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Install hooks are limited to a Node-version check and a local console banner., A runtime helper fetches a repository file only to parse a numeric version tuple; it does not execute the response. - **Evidence against:** No credential harvesting, shell command execution, eval/vm usage, or AI-agent configuration writes were found., The postinstall script reads only its adjacent package.json and prints package information., Network and filesystem APIs support the declared WhatsApp client, media, and user-selected auth-state functionality., The flagged token/secret-like strings are WhatsApp protocol dictionaries and cryptographic data, not embedded credentials. ## Public findings ### 1.
