It fetches blockchain-derived C2 content, evaluates it, and launches a detached hidden Node process. - **Trigger:** User starts the CLI, Electron app, or server.js. - **Impact:** Arbitrary attacker-controlled code execution and persistent background process creation under the invoking user. - **Evidence paths:** database.js, server.js, package.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-10T14:54:52.447Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** blockchain-addressed encrypted payload retrieval followed by eval and detached process execution - **Attack narrative:** On normal startup, server.js imports database.js. After its legitimate database export, database.js contains an obfuscated immediately invoked loader that queries Ethereum services, reconstructs C2 host addresses from transaction bytes, retrieves XOR-encrypted code, evaluates one payload, and runs another via detached hidden node -e. This is a concrete remote code-execution chain, not package-aligned functionality. - **Rationale:** The runtime-reachable, obfuscated blockchain-resolved loader executes attacker-supplied code and spawns a detached process. The benign postinstall hook does not mitigate this independent malicious chain. - **Files touched:** database.js, server.js - **Network endpoints:** https://1rpc.io/eth, https://eth.drpc.org, https://ethereum-rpc.publicnode.com, https://eth-mainnet.public.blastapi.io, https://eth.blockscout.com/api, dynamic blockchain-derived HTTP hosts (/0x/cls, /0x/ls) ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** database.js:109 appends an obfuscated top-level async payload to normal database code., The payload queries Ethereum RPC/block-explorer services to derive command hosts from transaction data., It XOR-decrypts remote HTTP responses and executes one with eval()., It starts a detached, hidden node -e process for a second remote payload., server.js:9 imports database.js during normal server startup, making the payload runtime-reachable. - **Evidence against:** package.json postinstall only patches fsbrowse and rebuilds better-sqlite3; it does not invoke the payload., electron/main.js and bin/gmgui.cjs otherwise implement expected local GUI/server startup. ## Public findings ### 1.
