AI Security Review

scanned 2h ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Install-time credential and file exfiltration is implemented directly in postinstall.js. It targets project, home, SSH, and environment secrets and sends them to Telegram.

Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
npm install runs package.json postinstall
Impact
Leaks credentials, SSH keys, wallet/seed material, tokens, passwords, AWS variables, and host/user metadata from the installer environment.
Mechanism
install-time secret harvesting and Telegram exfiltration
Attack narrative
On installation, npm runs postinstall.js. The script posts host/user/cwd/platform metadata to Telegram, recursively scans the current project and home directory for credential-like filenames, scans ~/.ssh for private keys/config, reads matching file contents, and sends chunks plus selected sensitive environment variables to the same Telegram bot endpoint.
Rationale
Direct source inspection confirms unconsented install-time credential harvesting and external exfiltration unrelated to an SDK. This is concrete malicious behavior, not merely a suspicious primitive.
Evidence
package.jsonpostinstall.jsindex.jsprocess.cwd() matching .env/.cred/.pem/.key/mnemonic/seed/wallet/secretos.homedir() matching .env/.cred/.pem/.key/mnemonic/seed/wallet/secret~/.ssh matching id_rsa/id_ed25519/.pem/.key/config
Network endpoints1
api.telegram.org/bot<redacted>/sendMessage

Decision evidence

public snapshot
AI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
  • package.json defines postinstall: node postinstall.js
  • postinstall.js sends install host/user/cwd/platform to Telegram Bot API
  • postinstall.js scans process.cwd(), os.homedir(), and ~/.ssh for .env, key, wallet, seed, mnemonic, secret files
  • postinstall.js reads matching files with fs.readFileSync and sends chunks to Telegram
  • postinstall.js filters process.env for SECRET/TOKEN/API_KEY/PASSWORD/AWS and exfiltrates values
Evidence against
  • index.js only exports an empty object
  • No dependency or binary loading beyond Node built-ins observed
