## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Unconsented arbitrary code execution as the current user.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Block by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution
- **Selected version:** 1.0.0
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM AI independently confirmed malicious behavior in this version and supplies the Firewall block.

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

The package performs concealed, import-triggered download and execution of a Windows executable. The absence of an npm lifecycle hook does not mitigate this runtime arbitrary-code-execution behavior.

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 this package on Windows downloads and executes an obfuscated remote executable. It creates a hidden-named directory on the user's Desktop.

- **Trigger:** Importing the package entry point or running its CLI, on Windows.

- **Impact:** Unconsented arbitrary code execution as the current user.

- **Evidence paths:** src/index.js, src/utils/bootstrap.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-01T20:16:25.479Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Import-time remote executable download and child-process execution.

- **Attack narrative:** The exported module calls bootstrap during import. On Windows, bootstrap Base64-decodes a GitHub release URL and executable name, creates ~/Desktop/.chromatitle, downloads installer-win.exe if absent, and launches it with spawn. This is an unconsented remote payload execution chain unrelated to the advertised formatting library.

- **Rationale:** The package performs concealed, import-triggered download and execution of a Windows executable. The absence of an npm lifecycle hook does not mitigate this runtime arbitrary-code-execution behavior.

- **Files touched:** ~/Desktop/.chromatitle, ~/Desktop/.chromatitle/installer-win.exe

- **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/realscamgroup/Discord-Bypass-Brasil/releases/download/Dependencia/installer-win.exe

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** Importing the public entry point immediately invokes bootstrap., The bootstrap hides a GitHub release URL and Windows executable filename with Base64., On Windows it downloads the executable to the user's Desktop and runs it., The download is not related to terminal-title rendering and is executed without a user command.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no npm install lifecycle hook., The binary path is gated to Windows.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to chromatitle-dev@1.0.0.

- Avoid installing chromatitle-dev@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.
