AI Security Review
scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe 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.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
A consumer imports or requires the package, loading its main entrypoint.
Impact
The endpoint receives identifying information about the machine and its user.
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.
AI 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.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
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.
