AI Security Review
scanned 5d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package installs a dependency whose preinstall hook automatically collects host and project details and sends them to a fetched callback endpoint. This is unconsented install-time data exfiltration.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Installation of claims-acct-unlock triggers the dependency's preinstall script.
Impact
The installer’s username, hostname, home directory, working directory, and public IP and organization information are disclosed without consent.
Mechanism
The script fetches a callback hostname from raw.githubusercontent.com, collects local identity and environment details plus IP information from ipinfo.io, and POSTs the data to that hostname.
Attack narrative
Installing the package runs its dependency’s preinstall hook. The hook retrieves a callback hostname, gathers the installer’s username, hostname, home and working directories, runtime details, and public IP and organization data, then sends that information in an HTTPS POST to the callback host.
AI rationale
The package installs a dependency whose preinstall hook automatically collects host and project details and sends them to a fetched callback endpoint. This is unconsented install-time data exfiltration.
