It continuously reads changed clipboard content and exfiltrates it; a hotkey captures and uploads screenshots. - **Trigger:** User runs the bqq1 CLI - **Impact:** Sensitive clipboard text and screen contents can be disclosed to a remote server. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, pointer.py - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-18T22:15:13.636Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** clipboard polling and screenshot capture sent by HTTP POST - **Attack narrative:** The package has no install hook, but its declared CLI starts pointer.py. That program creates a hidden transparent UI, repeatedly checks clipboard contents, and POSTs changed text to a remote Vercel endpoint without a per-item user action. It can also capture the screen, encode it, and upload it to the same endpoint. This is a concrete runtime data-exfiltration capability with stealth-oriented presentation. - **Rationale:** Source establishes automatic clipboard exfiltration to a hard-coded remote endpoint after the CLI is run, with optional screenshot upload and stealth controls. The absence of lifecycle execution does not negate the malicious runtime behavior. - **Files touched:** index.js, pointer.py - **Network endpoints:** https://iq-sec.vercel.app/api ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The CLI launches bundled pointer.py after installing dependencies., pointer.py polls the clipboard every 300ms and sends changed text to a remote endpoint., The program captures screenshots and posts their base64 content to that endpoint., The UI is intentionally hidden/transparent and registers global hotkeys. - **Evidence against:** package.json contains no npm lifecycle hook; execution requires running the bqq1 CLI., Screenshot capture is bound to a registered hotkey. ## Public findings ### 1.
