The destination is decrypted at runtime and the current page query parameters are propagated. - **Trigger:** A browser opens or renders index.html. - **Impact:** Can send a visitor to a concealed remote destination and disclose URL query parameters to it. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.html - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-14T07:25:02.155Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Obfuscated fetch, AES decryption, and browser redirect. - **Attack narrative:** The package presents a fake verification page, then automatically fetches a remotely controlled encrypted value. It decrypts that value into a destination URL, copies current query parameters into it, and redirects the browser. The obfuscation and hidden destination prevent users from assessing where they are sent or what parameters are disclosed. - **Rationale:** This package has no library functionality: its sole entrypoint is a fake verification HTML page with an automatic, remote-controlled concealed redirect. That is concrete malicious browser-delivery behavior, not a package-aligned feature. - **Files touched:** index.html ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Manifest exposes only an HTML page as the package entrypoint., The page automatically starts a heavily obfuscated routine after one second., The routine sends an obfuscated host key in a fetch request and decrypts a server-supplied value with AES-CTR., It constructs a destination URL, copies page query parameters, and redirects the browser; the remote destination is concealed. - **Evidence against:** No npm lifecycle scripts are declared., No package filesystem, process, or native/binary operations were found. ## Public findings ### 1.
