AI Security Review
scanned 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiSource directly implements clipboard and screenshot upload to a remote endpoint, with concealment features. The absence of an install hook limits automatic activation but does not remove the malicious runtime behavior.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Explicit execution of the bqq1 CLI or index.js.
Impact
Sensitive clipboard text and screen contents can be exfiltrated.
Mechanism
Clipboard and screenshot collection with remote upload.
Attack narrative
The user-invoked CLI silently prepares Python dependencies and launches pointer.py. That payload polls the system clipboard every 300 ms and sends new text to a hard-coded remote endpoint; a hotkey also captures the full screen, encodes it, and sends it to the same endpoint. Its blank transparent UI, stealth hide/show controls, and global keyboard hooks reduce user visibility. Although it lacks an install lifecycle hook, the runtime behavior is concrete collection and exfiltration.
AI rationale
Source directly implements clipboard and screenshot upload to a remote endpoint, with concealment features. The absence of an install hook limits automatic activation but does not remove the malicious runtime behavior.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 98.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- Runtime starts a bundled Python payload.
- Payload continuously reads clipboard changes and uploads them.
- Payload captures the full screen and uploads it.
- Stealth UI and global hotkeys conceal the activity.
Evidence against
- No npm preinstall/install/postinstall lifecycle hook.
- Activation requires explicit CLI/runtime execution.

Affected versions and remediation
This report applies to bqq1@1.0.0.
The versions list below shows the verdict for each recorded version.
- Avoid installing bqq1@1.0.0. 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.
