## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Exposure of host configuration, account identity, working directory, network information and runtime metadata when the necessary APIs are available.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 1.0.0
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

Trusted malware advisory MAL-2026-17485 identifies this version as malicious. Firewall keeps the version blocked under its trusted-intelligence policy. An AI recommendation to allow or warn does not override that advisory.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The shipped registry module automatically collects host information and transmits it to an external callback. Its bundled manifest exposes that module as several registry assets.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The shipped registry module automatically collects host information and transmits it to an external callback. Its bundled manifest exposes that module as several registry assets.

- **Trigger:** Loading or evaluating thunderboltRegistry.js, directly or through a manifest-based registry loader.

- **Impact:** Exposure of host configuration, account identity, working directory, network information and runtime metadata when the necessary APIs are available.

- **Evidence paths:** thunderboltRegistry.js, registry-manifest.min.json

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-03T11:45:15.470Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** An immediately invoked function loads child\_process, runs reconnaissance commands and sends encoded results through fetch; it also sends process metadata.

- **Attack narrative:** Loading the registry asset immediately activates host reconnaissance and outbound reporting. In Node environments with child\_process and fetch available, shell command results are transmitted to a hardcoded external recipient. The behavior requires no caller authorization and is unrelated to CSS scroll anchoring. The empty default entrypoint limits activation but does not neutralize the shipped executable attack.

- **Rationale:** Inspected source proves automatic host-data collection and transmission in a distributed registry module. This is concrete data exfiltration, despite the absence of install hooks and the empty default entrypoint.

- **Files touched:** /etc/hosts

- **Network endpoints:** http://dxpoc.gt.tc/callback.php/ef9ea0e191006f3cc6670720c99c26f3

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** thunderboltRegistry.js sends collected information through fetch to a hardcoded external HTTP callback., The registry module executes shell commands to collect host information, including /etc/hosts, and sends their output., The module automatically sends the Node version, platform and process identifier when evaluated., registry-manifest.min.json directs registry asset loaders to thunderboltRegistry.js.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts, and its main entrypoint, index.js, exports an empty object; the attack requires loading the registry module.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to css-scroll-anchor-polyfill@1.0.0.
