Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — The recipient can learn identifying host and user information from the lookup. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration - **Selected version:** 12.0.0 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The manifest points consumers to index.js, where package loading triggers an identifying DNS lookup to an unrelated OAST domain. This supports a data exfiltration finding and a publish block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-26T16:10:36.006Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-26T16:10:54.731Z - **Download time:** 510 ms - **Static scan time:** 7 ms - **AI review time:** 18207 ms - **Total time:** 18725 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Loading the package triggers a DNS lookup that discloses the machine hostname and user account to an unrelated OAST domain. - **Trigger:** Requiring the package entrypoint. - **Impact:** The recipient can learn identifying host and user information from the lookup. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-26T16:10:54.731Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The entrypoint combines the hostname and user account, then embeds them in a DNS query name. - **Attack narrative:** Requiring the package automatically sends the hostname and user account in a DNS lookup to an OAST domain. This is unrelated to the declared web utilities purpose and has no visible user consent guard. - **Rationale:** The manifest points consumers to index.js, where package loading triggers an identifying DNS lookup to an unrelated OAST domain. This supports a data exfiltration finding and a publish block. - **Files touched:** index.js - **Network endpoints:** infpvjkgeazvrvvbtqszbyt7ua3s66fcr.oast.fun ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The manifest makes index.js the package entrypoint., When loaded, index.js builds a DNS name from the machine hostname and user account, then resolves it at an OAST domain. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to axon-web@12.0.0. - Avoid installing axon-web@12.0.0. 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.
