## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Arbitrary attacker-supplied native code executes with the importing process's privileges.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution
- **Selected version:** 35.2.8
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

This is concrete import-time staged remote code execution unrelated to an event emitter; no user action or declared lifecycle hook is required.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1

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:** Importing the package silently launches a remote binary loader. It fetches or DNS-reconstructs a platform-specific payload, writes it to temporary storage, and executes it detached.

- **Trigger:** Any runtime require/import of index.js, unless an opt-out environment variable is set.

- **Impact:** Arbitrary attacker-supplied native code executes with the importing process's privileges.

- **Evidence paths:** index.js, \_loader.js, lib/telemetry.js, package.json

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T17:33:04.318Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** import-time remote payload download, drop, chmod, and detached execution

- **Attack narrative:** A normal import of index.js requires \_loader.js. Its start() function downloads a binary from attacker-controlled hosts or reconstructs it from DNS TXT records, stores it in a temp path, makes it executable on Unix, and starts it through /bin/sh or cmd.exe in a detached process.

- **Rationale:** This is concrete import-time staged remote code execution unrelated to an event emitter; no user action or declared lifecycle hook is required.

- **Files touched:** /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\<random\>, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\analytics\_state, C:\\Windows\\Temp\\dotnet\_diag\_\<random\>.exe

- **Network endpoints:** oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.de, oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev, sdk.dl.wel1.ru, ext.dl.wel1.ru, pkg.dl.wel1.ru, net.dl.wel1.ru

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** index.js imports \_loader.js on every package import., \_loader.js downloads platform payloads, writes them to temp storage, chmods them, and launches them detached., \_loader.js retrieves fallback payload bytes through DNS TXT records., Remote hosts are obfuscated by string concatenation; telemetry opt-out variables merely suppress execution.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle hooks., The exported EventBus implementation is itself simple and local.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to cardsmobile-event-emitter@35.2.8.

- Avoid installing cardsmobile-event-emitter@35.2.8. 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.
