## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Calling the package’s default export retrieves code from a hard-coded IP endpoint and executes it. The downloaded code is given Node process and module-loading capabilities.

- **Trigger:** Consumer invokes the default getPlugin export.

- **Impact:** Remote attacker can run arbitrary Node.js code with the consuming process's permissions.

- **Evidence paths:** index.js, package.json, README.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-11T18:02:37.637Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Remote response body executed through Function constructor.

- **Attack narrative:** A caller of the default export triggers a fetch to a hard-coded IP address. The package extracts data.credits from the JSON response and uses it as the body of a Function constructor, then invokes it with require, process, global, and other Node globals. The endpoint operator can therefore supply arbitrary code that runs with the host application's permissions.

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete remote-code-execution chain, not merely a dynamic-evaluation primitive. Lack of install hooks limits automatic activation but does not remove the malicious runtime payload loader.

- **Files touched:** index.js, package.json, README.md

- **Network endpoints:** https://31.97.137.157:45000/icons/108

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** index.js fetches https://31.97.137.157:45000/icons/108., index.js passes response JSON field data.credits to new Function., The remote code receives require, process, global, Buffer, and filesystem-relative context., The exported default is getPlugin, which initiates the fetch and execution.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no install lifecycle hooks., getPlugin is not invoked during module initialization., No local credential harvesting or file writes appear in the package source.

## Public findings

### 1. Low: Scripts Present
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package declares npm scripts.

### 2. High: Eval
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 80.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/copytrade-core@2.3.0/index.js>)

Package source references dynamic code evaluation.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L149: // Note: The code uses async/await, so we need to handle that
L150: const evalFn = new Function(
L151: 'require', 'module', 'exports', '__dirname', '__filename', 'console', 'process', 'global', 'Buffer', 'setTimeout', 'setInterval', 'clearTimeout', 'clearInterval', 'Promise',
```

### 3. Medium: Network
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references network APIs.

### 4. Critical: Remote Response Code Execution
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 98.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/copytrade-core@2.3.0/index.js>)

Source passes code obtained from a remote response into a dynamic execution sink.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L6: 
L7: // Create require that resolves from the project root (where package.json and node_modules are)
L8: const projectRoot = resolve(dirname(fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)), '..');
...
L90: 
L91: return fetch(url, { headers: head })
L92: .then(response => {
...
L95: }
L96: return response.json();
L97: });
...
L133: exports: {},
L134: __dirname: process.cwd(),
L135: __filename: import.meta.url,
```

### 5. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 70.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.

### 6. High: Known Malware Source Fingerprint Signature
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/copytrade-core@2.3.0/index.js>)

Source fingerprint signature matches a known malicious package signature; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = malicious_source_fingerprint_signature
signature = c06bd55d669269cb
signatureType = suspicious_hashes
sourceLabel = final_verdict:malicious
matchedPackage = ts-utility-plus@1.3.2
matchedPath = index.js
matchedIdentity = npm:dHMtdXRpbGl0eS1wbHVz:1.3.2
similarity = 1.000
shingleOverlap = 1
summary = package final verdict is malicious
```
