AI Security Review

scanned 23d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The automatic lifecycle performs concrete, unconsented data exfiltration unrelated to the package's date-formatting functionality. The collection and actual network send are directly established by source inspection.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.

Trigger

The npm preinstall lifecycle runs setup.js.

Impact

The recipient receives the local username, hostname, project directory, and environment metadata.

Mechanism

The script serializes host and installation metadata and sends it through an HTTPS POST without a consent gate.

Attack narrative

Installing the package activates setup.js before the date formatter is used. The script collects identifying host and project metadata, sends it to a fixed external endpoint, and suppresses errors. The inspected code contains no opt-in gate for this unrelated data export.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for block

package.json automatically runs setup.js before installation and suppresses its failure.
setup.js collects the hostname, username, working directory, platform, architecture, Node version, and npm registry setting.
setup.js targets a fixed AWS API Gateway endpoint with an HTTPS POST.
setup.js sends the collected data and silently ignores network errors.

Evidence against

index.js implements a small date-formatting function.
No credential harvesting, remote code execution, or filesystem mutation was observed.
