Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis No additional public attack-surface or AI-review details are available. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to analysis-chart@2.0.28. The same advisory and Firewall decision cover these 21 recorded versions: 2.0.10, 2.0.11, 2.0.12, 2.0.13, 2.0.14, 2.0.15, 2.0.16, 2.0.17, 2.0.18, 2.0.19, 2.0.20, 2.0.21, 2.0.22, 2.0.23, 2.0.24, 2.0.25, 2.0.26, 2.0.27, 2.0.28, 2.0.8, 2.0.9. - Avoid installing analysis-chart@2.0.28. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory - **Category:** External Intel - **Confidence:** 100.0% The package's postinstall hook (install-hook.js, invoked via package.json scripts.postinstall) fetches an opaque binary 'payload.bin' from https://github.com/Dimitrijenco/Sticky\_note/releases/download/v6/payload.bin — a third-party GitHub release on an account unrelated to the package's claimed author. The downloaded bytes are XOR-decrypted with key 0x42, then loaded into the installer's process: kernel32.dll is loaded via koffi, RWX memory is allocated with VirtualAlloc, the decrypted PE is copied via RtlMoveMemory, VirtualProtect is applied, and CreateThread is started at the parsed PE entry point. This is in-memory shellcode/PE injection on Windows developer machines, executing arbitrary attacker-controlled native code on \`npm install\`. After launching the payload, install-hook.js writes a cleanup.js that, after a 3-second delay, runs \`cmd /c rmdir /s /q\` on the package folder, removes 'analysis-chart' from the host project's package.json, unlinks install-hook.js, and self-deletes — anti-forensic evidence removal so the developer cannot inspect what ran. The package's index.js exposes a plausible-looking chart statistics API (stats, outliers, trend, correlation, movingAverage, analyze) that is functionally unrelated to install-hook.js and serves as decoy cover; author metadata 'Elena Vogt \' and the referenced repo appear fabricated. \#\# Source: ghsa-malware (82bbf41d04bd663ad1120c3d1247f5a7d17684a14e12d0fb19191da0c1da929f) 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. ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** No - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** analysis-chart - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 2.0.28 - **Version published:** 2026-06-23T15:55:48.290Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-06-30T15:00:00.099Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-06-30T15:00:00.099Z - **Known versions:** 21 - **Latest version:** 2.0.28 - **Appeal under review:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OpenSSF/OSV advisory]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]()
