OpenSSF/OSV Malicious Advisory

Advisory
MAL-2026-18364
Source
OpenSSF Malicious Packages via OSV
Summary
Malicious code in @zaip-ai/cli (npm)
Details
Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.

Independent LPM AI assessment
Manual ReviewIndependent AI assessment: manual_review. LPM AI review remains unresolved.
The inspected source did not establish malicious behavior, and the scanner's claimed activation through the doctor service was not confirmed. The shipped Windows executable is an unresolved required file, so a clean verdict is not supported by this review.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
A user opening the Windows launcher is the documented activation; the executable's actual behavior is unverified.
Impact
The executable's behavior cannot be cleared from this source review.
Mechanism
The package manifest marks the launcher as a binary and provides a checksum, while the available C# source offers context but cannot confirm that it matches the shipped executable.
AI rationale
The inspected source did not establish malicious behavior, and the scanner's claimed activation through the doctor service was not confirmed. The shipped Windows executable is an unresolved required file, so a clean verdict is not supported by this review.

Independent scan evidence
public snapshotAI called this Manual Review at 76.0% confidence as Unknown with medium false-positive risk.
AI review observations
- The package has no install lifecycle script, and its CLI entrypoint dispatches commands when the executable is run.
- The flagged integration locations are in tests and fixture support that create local hooks or configuration files.
- The package manifest identifies the Windows executable as a binary; its contents could not be inspected as UTF-8 source.
- The package documentation describes opening the launcher explicitly, and a corresponding C# launcher source is present, but that does not verify the shipped binary's behavior.
Evidence against
- The inspected launcher documentation describes a user-opened Windows tool; the inspected source did not establish an attack.
- The inspected test excerpts concern local fixture files and configuration scenarios, not an npm install hook.
