AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The transitive dependency executes automatically during installation and sends host and user identifying data to a hard-coded Discord webhook. This is install-time data exfiltration unrelated to the calculator package's purpose. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-02T06:36:11.931Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-02T06:36:40.881Z - **Download time:** 563 ms - **Static scan time:** 5 ms - **AI review time:** 28381 ms - **Total time:** 28950 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:** A transitive install hook sends host and user identifying data to a Discord webhook. - **Trigger:** Installing this package installs its dependency, whose preinstall script runs automatically. - **Impact:** The installation discloses the machine hostname and OS username to the webhook recipient. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-7b044aea-4dbb-4b09-bafa-9ded2a0ef7b5/0/npm-linux/package.json, .lpm-dependency-evidence-7b044aea-4dbb-4b09-bafa-9ded2a0ef7b5/0/npm-linux/preinstall.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T06:36:40.881Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook POSTs the machine hostname and OS username to a hard-coded Discord webhook URL. - **Attack narrative:** During installation, the package's dependency runs a preinstall hook that sends the machine hostname and OS username to a hard-coded Discord webhook. The hook also writes a local marker file. - **Rationale:** The transitive dependency executes automatically during installation and sends host and user identifying data to a hard-coded Discord webhook. This is install-time data exfiltration unrelated to the calculator package's purpose. - **Files touched:** .lpm-dependency-evidence-7b044aea-4dbb-4b09-bafa-9ded2a0ef7b5/0/npm-linux/preinstall.js, .lpm-dependency-evidence-7b044aea-4dbb-4b09-bafa-9ded2a0ef7b5/0/npm-linux/.preinstall-marker.json - **Network endpoints:** https://discord.com/api/webhooks/1566215853794394162/xsqpEbSn-cc3DU2AKWdzqWnXX5hjTfV-gUePQZ4evrHGlZctMd40TKCrN42qnJd7moc1 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The parent package depends on calculator-preinstall-hook-demo@1.1.2., That dependency runs node preinstall.js through its preinstall script during installation., The hook posts to a hard-coded Discord webhook., The POST body includes the machine hostname and OS username. - **Evidence against:** The parent package has no lifecycle scripts of its own. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to calculator-preinstall-chain-demo@1.1.2. - Avoid installing calculator-preinstall-chain-demo@1.1.2. 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.
