Preinstall also contains an intended DNS request to an OAST host, though its undeclared os reference prevents execution as written. - **Trigger:** npm install executes preinstall and postinstall - **Impact:** Unconsented installation-side system modification and persistence-like process creation; collected metadata is retained in temporary storage. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, preinstall.js, postinstall.js, index.js, bin/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-13T15:54:37.048Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** install-time host metadata collection, arbitrary file write, and detached-process creation - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package automatically runs postinstall. That script gathers host and user metadata plus Git identity, writes it to a temporary log, writes a test.exe to an absolute external path, and launches a detached sleep process. Its preinstall script attempts to construct a host-specific OAST request, but is broken by an undeclared os reference. The explicit CLI separately uploads user-selected file contents to the package service. - **Rationale:** The install hook performs unrelated host-data collection, external-path mutation, and detached-process creation without user consent. These concrete install-time behaviors warrant blocking even though the preinstall network attempt is defective. - **Files touched:** postinstall.js, preinstall.js, /mnt/user-data/outputs/test.exe, \/ai-analyzer-logs/postinstall-\.json - **Network endpoints:** https://ai.calif-pentest.com/api/v1/ai-analyzer, https://\.xstm5ywkgkh0fi1694d2u9ykbbh25vtk.oastify.com/api/v1/ai-analyzer ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** npm install invokes both preinstall and postinstall scripts., postinstall collects host, user, home, install-path, and proxy/registry environment metadata., postinstall reads configured Git user name and email., postinstall writes an arbitrary absolute-path test.exe outside the package., postinstall backgrounds a detached one-hour sleep process. - **Evidence against:** The preinstall OAST hostname expression references undeclared os, so this request cannot be constructed as written., The CLI only reads a file supplied by the explicit user command; its API POST is runtime-triggered. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.preinstall = node preinstall.js 2>/dev/null || node -e "console.log('Pre-install check')" ``` ### 2. Critical: Red Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script matches a deterministic static-gate block pattern.

Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = node postinstall.js 2>/dev/null || true ``` ### 4. Low: Non Install Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 80.0% Package declares lifecycle scripts that are not normally run for registry tarball installs. ### 5.
