## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Unconsented disclosure of host, home-directory, and DNS configuration metadata.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Block by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 28.0.0
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation automatically sends host-identifying system data to an external OAST endpoint.

- **Trigger:** npm preinstall

- **Impact:** Unconsented disclosure of host, home-directory, and DNS configuration metadata.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, crm-reportinsightserv-paypal-28.0.0.tgz

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-26T17:38:04.675Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** host fingerprinting and HTTPS exfiltration

- **Attack narrative:** npm invokes the preinstall hook, which runs index.js. It gathers local hostname, platform, architecture, home-directory path, and configured DNS servers, then POSTs them to an external OAST host without user action.

- **Rationale:** Direct source inspection confirms unconsented install-time host fingerprint exfiltration. The nested archive contains the same manifest and source pattern.

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

- **Network endpoints:** x75kp5s6h5jveprlhbibqpi4nvtnhe53.oastify.com/hit

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** package.json runs \`node index.js\` as preinstall., index.js collects hostname, OS, home path, and DNS servers., index.js POSTs the collected fingerprint to oastify.com., Manifest describes a dependency-confusion proof of concept.

- **Evidence against:** No credentials, shell execution, or payload download observed.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to crm-reportinsightserv-paypal@28.0.0.
