Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Clicking Publish transmits an npm credential and selected package content through an opaque third-party Worker. This creates direct credential and source-data exposure. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-14T03:44:36.353Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-14T03:45:16.794Z - **Download time:** 788 ms - **Static scan time:** 21 ms - **AI review time:** 39631 ms - **Total time:** 40441 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Clicking Publish transmits an npm credential and selected package content through an opaque third-party Worker. This creates direct credential and source-data exposure. - **Trigger:** A user selects a file and clicks Publish Link. - **Impact:** The Worker can capture the npm token and uploaded package contents, enabling account misuse or data theft. - **Evidence paths:** app.js, index.html - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-14T03:45:16.794Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Forwards a bearer token and encoded file attachments to a fixed proxy. - **Attack narrative:** The browser interface collects an npm authentication token and a user-selected package. On Publish, ordinary browser execution routes the request to a fixed Cloudflare Worker, including the bearer token and full encoded attachments. The Worker is not package-aligned or inspectable here, so it can retain the credential and package data before any registry forwarding. - **Rationale:** The package deliberately routes npm credentials and uploaded content through an opaque third-party endpoint. This is concrete credential and data exfiltration behavior despite requiring a user click. - **Files touched:** app.js, index.html - **Network endpoints:** https://dawn-salad-6ee1.vihaanb0715.workers.dev, https://registry.npmjs.org ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The publish action sends the entered npm bearer token to a fixed third-party Cloudflare Worker in normal browser use., It packages the selected file or ZIP contents into attachments and sends them with that request., The token is also retained in browser local storage., The HTML includes a prefilled npm token value. - **Evidence against:** There are no npm install lifecycle hooks., Network activity requires a user clicking the publish button. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @vbansal67/npm-publishinging@1.0.0. - Avoid installing @vbansal67/npm-publishinging@1.0.0. 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.
