AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package's remote-tarball dependency runs code during installation that collects host and environment details and sends them to a remotely fetched callback host. This is concrete, unauthorized install-time data exfiltration.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
The dependency's automatic preinstall hook.
Impact
Installers' usernames, hostnames, home and working directory paths, public IP, and runtime details are disclosed to a remotely selected collector.
Mechanism
It retrieves a callback hostname from GitHub, gathers system and network details, then posts them to that hostname over HTTPS with certificate validation disabled.
Attack narrative
Installing this package installs a dependency whose preinstall hook runs automatically. The hook fetches a callback hostname, collects host and environment details including username, hostname, directory paths, and public IP, then sends them in a POST to that hostname. This is unauthorized install-time data exfiltration.
AI rationale
The package's remote-tarball dependency runs code during installation that collects host and environment details and sends them to a remotely fetched callback host. This is concrete, unauthorized install-time data exfiltration.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- The package depends on node-acct-utilssss21 through a GitHub-hosted tarball.
- The dependency runs index.js automatically in its preinstall hook.
- The hook fetches a callback hostname from raw.githubusercontent.com and collects the username, hostname, and current working directory.
- The hook adds public IP, home directory, platform, architecture, and runtime details to a payload sent to the fetched hostname.
- The hook sends the payload in an HTTPS POST and disables certificate validation.
