Firewall keeps the version blocked under its trusted-intelligence policy. An AI recommendation to allow or warn does not override that advisory. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. No confirmed malicious attack surface. Network and file operations are runtime WhatsApp messaging/media functions invoked through the library API. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 96.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-30T10:34:05.816Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-30T10:35:08.617Z - **Download time:** 509 ms - **Static scan time:** 1904 ms - **AI review time:** 60387 ms - **Total time:** 62801 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:** No confirmed malicious attack surface. Network and file operations are runtime WhatsApp messaging/media functions invoked through the library API. - **Trigger:** Consumer creates a WhatsApp socket or requests media processing. - **Impact:** No unconsented install-time action, persistence, harvesting, or exfiltration established. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, lib/index.js, lib/Defaults/index.js, lib/Socket/socket.js, lib/Utils/messages-media.js, lib/Utils/messages.js, lib/Utils/use-multi-file-auth-state.js, lib/Utils/generics.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-30T10:35:08.617Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** WhatsApp WebSocket communication and encrypted media handling. - **Rationale:** The suspicious primitives are confined to expected, user-invoked WhatsApp media and connection functionality. Source inspection found no lifecycle execution or concrete malicious chain. - **Network endpoints:** wss://web.whatsapp.com/ws/chat, https://mmg.whatsapp.net/, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/WhiskeySockets/Baileys/master/src/Defaults/baileys-version.json ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** Media helper invokes ffmpeg through child\_process.exec., Audio helper uses eval only to dynamically import audio-decode., Runtime networking supports the declared WhatsApp Web client. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts or bin entrypoint., Main entrypoint only exports socket, protocol, utility, and type modules., ffmpeg is called by video thumbnail generation using a generated temporary image path., No credential harvesting, environment access, persistence, or unsolicited exfiltration was found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to bungoma@1.0.1. - Avoid installing bungoma@1.0.1. 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.
