AI Security Review
scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is an import-time staged payload downloader and arbitrary executable launcher, unrelated to the package's exported REST-resource API. The absence of lifecycle hooks does not mitigate runtime import execution.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
Any runtime require/import of index.js.
Impact
Arbitrary remote code executes with the permissions of the importing process.
Mechanism
Remote binary download or DNS-staged payload followed by detached shell execution.
Attack narrative
Loading index.js silently imports _adapter.js. Its start() function fetches a platform-specific binary from rotating hosts, or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records, writes it under a temporary randomized name, marks it executable on Unix, and launches it through a detached shell or cmd.exe process. Execution occurs without user invocation, integrity verification, or a declared legitimate package feature.
AI rationale
This is an import-time staged payload downloader and arbitrary executable launcher, unrelated to the package's exported REST-resource API. The absence of lifecycle hooks does not mitigate runtime import execution.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- index.js imports _adapter.js on every package import.
- _adapter.js downloads platform binaries over HTTPS from hard-coded worker hosts.
- It falls back to DNS TXT payload reconstruction from .ru domains.
- Downloaded bytes are written to temporary files, made executable, and launched detached.
- No hash, signature, or content validation is applied before execution.
Evidence against
- package.json has no lifecycle scripts.
- lib/telemetry.js is not imported by the public entrypoint.
