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 published registry module executes host reconnaissance commands and transmits their results when loaded. Its manifest directs registry consumers to that module. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-03T21:47:36.795Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-03T21:48:29.583Z - **Download time:** 512 ms - **Static scan time:** 12 ms - **AI review time:** 52263 ms - **Total time:** 52788 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 published registry module executes host reconnaissance commands and transmits their results when loaded. Its manifest directs registry consumers to that module. - **Trigger:** Loading thunderboltRegistry.js directly or through a consumer of registry-manifest.min.json. - **Impact:** Disclosure of hostname, user identity, operating-system details, network configuration, and /etc/hosts contents. - **Evidence paths:** thunderboltRegistry.js, registry-manifest.min.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-03T21:48:29.583Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** An immediately invoked function uses child\_process.execSync to collect host information and fetch to send it to a fixed HTTP callback. - **Attack narrative:** The default entrypoint is empty, but the package ships a registry module and a manifest directing several registry names to it. Loading that module immediately collects host information through shell commands and sends the results to an unrelated HTTP callback. Exceptions are swallowed, and matching require-cache entries are removed. This is concrete conditional data exfiltration unrelated to a CSS polyfill. - **Rationale:** Inspected source establishes automatic host-data collection and transmission upon registry-module loading. The empty default entrypoint limits activation but does not neutralize the executable exfiltration payload. - **Files touched:** /etc/hosts - **Network endpoints:** http://dxpoc.gt.tc/callback.php/bb8968d0f67000433bf7005dd5ad2d1f ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** Loading thunderboltRegistry.js immediately executes shell commands and forwards their output without a consent gate., The module sends the hostname and collected output to a fixed unrelated HTTP callback., The module reads /etc/hosts and transmits up to 2,000 characters of its contents., registry-manifest.min.json maps several registry modules to the executable payload., The module deletes matching registry entries from the require cache. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts, and its default index.js entrypoint exports an empty object; ordinary installation or default import does not activate the payload. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to css-snap-target-polyfill@1.0.0. - Avoid installing css-snap-target-polyfill@1.0.0. 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.
