Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The automatic postinstall mutates the consuming project, creating unresolved install-time side-effect risk. The inspected source does not show the specific attack behaviors required for a publish block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-12T00:04:13.662Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-12T00:07:44.691Z - **Download time:** 1014 ms - **Static scan time:** 56 ms - **AI review time:** 209958 ms - **Total time:** 211029 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:** Automatic installation can modify the consuming project by adding files and package scripts. - **Trigger:** The npm postinstall lifecycle runs during package installation. - **Impact:** This can change project files and package behavior without a separate setup command; no broader attack was established in inspected source. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-12T00:07:44.691Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The script uses INIT\_CWD as the consumer project and creates missing source/configuration files and dev, build, and start script entries. - **Rationale:** The automatic postinstall mutates the consuming project, creating unresolved install-time side-effect risk. The inspected source does not show the specific attack behaviors required for a publish block. - **Files touched:** src, tsconfig.json, .env, package.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** package.json runs scripts/postinstall.js automatically after installation., The postinstall targets INIT\_CWD when it differs from the package directory and copies package files into that project., It adds missing dev, build, and start scripts and writes the consumer project's package.json. - **Evidence against:** The script only fills missing files and script names; inspected code shows no network access, credential collection, or shell execution. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @yes20sh/ts-node-express@1.0.2. - Review the evidence and your use of @yes20sh/ts-node-express@1.0.2 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.

Medium: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() package.json runs scripts/postinstall.js automatically after installation. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json "prepublishOnly": "npm run build", "postinstall": "node scripts/postinstall.js", "start": "node dist/server.js", " ``` ### 9. Medium: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** scripts/postinstall.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The postinstall targets INIT\_CWD when it differs from the package directory and copies package files into that project. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript if (userProjectDir && path.resolve(userProjectDir) !== packageDir) { try { // 1. Copy src folder const sourceSrc = path.join(packageDir, 'src'); const targetSrc = pat ``` ### 10. Medium: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** scripts/postinstall.js - **Public source:** [View source]() It adds missing dev, build, and start scripts and writes the consumer project's package.json. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript if (updated) { fs.writeFileSync(userPackageJsonPath, JSON.stringify(userPkg, null, 2), 'utf8'); console.log('\x1b[32m%s\x1b[0m', '✔ [@yes20sh/ts-node-express] Added scripts (de ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** postinstall, prepublishOnly - **Dependencies:** 12 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 5 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 12 ### Published dependency entries - @types/cors ^2.8.19 (Dependency) - @types/express ^5.0.0 (Dependency) - @types/morgan ^1.9.10 (Dependency) - @types/node ^22.10.2 (Dependency) - cors ^2.8.6 (Dependency) - dotenv ^16.4.7 (Dependency) - express ^4.21.2 (Dependency) - mongoose ^9.11.1 (Dependency) - morgan ^1.12.1 (Dependency) - nodemon ^3.1.9 (Dependency) - ts-node ^10.9.2 (Dependency) - typescript ^5.7.2 (Dependency) ## Package metadata - **Package:** @yes20sh/ts-node-express - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.2 - **License:** MIT - **Version published:** 2026-10-11T23:59:38.249Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-10-11T23:58:19.347Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-10-12T01:15:54.624Z - **Known versions:** 6 - **Latest version:** 1.0.8 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** TypeScript Express CRUD API with Database - **Maintainers:** yes20sh - **Artifact files:** 26 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 20,035 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 2 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]()
