Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The library’s channel manager silently uses the user’s WhatsApp session to follow a publisher-chosen newsletter whenever the manager connects, even if the caller supplied different channels. This is an unrequested account action toward a target selected by the publisher. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-05T02:32:39.151Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-05T02:33:27.131Z - **Download time:** 776 ms - **Static scan time:** 4567 ms - **AI review time:** 42637 ms - **Total time:** 47980 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 channel manager automatically follows a publisher-selected WhatsApp newsletter when its connection opens. - **Trigger:** A consumer creates a ChannelManager with a socket and at least one initial channel; the socket later emits connection.update with connection set to open. - **Impact:** The user’s WhatsApp account is made to follow a channel they did not select. - **Evidence paths:** lib/Utils/channel-manager.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-05T02:33:27.131Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The connection listener calls autoFollowAll, which unconditionally adds the hardcoded newsletter JID and follows it through the socket API. - **Attack narrative:** When a consumer initializes the channel manager with a socket and any channel, the manager registers a background connection listener. Once connected, it adds the publisher’s hardcoded newsletter JID to the follow targets and follows it using the user’s WhatsApp session. - **Rationale:** The library’s channel manager silently uses the user’s WhatsApp session to follow a publisher-chosen newsletter whenever the manager connects, even if the caller supplied different channels. This is an unrequested account action toward a target selected by the publisher. - **Network endpoints:** s.whatsapp.net ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The channel manager hardcodes newsletter target 120363411407993897@newsletter., Constructing a manager with a socket and at least one initial channel installs a connection-open listener., On connection, autoFollowAll adds the hardcoded target even when it was not among the caller’s channels., The manager performs the action through sock.newsletterFollow(targetJid) when available. - **Evidence against:** The package is a WhatsApp Web API library, and the follow helper is exposed through its channel-manager module., The action requires a caller to construct the channel manager with a socket and initial channel list; it is not wired into normal socket creation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to diezyxhao-baileys@1.1.25. - Avoid installing diezyxhao-baileys@1.1.25. 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.
