## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — No covert credential export, remote payload execution, broad project mutation, or agent control-surface modification was established.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Malware
- **Selected version:** 1.1.15
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

Trusted malware advisory MAL-2026-17620 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: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

No concrete attack was identified. Inspected lifecycle and flagged source behavior supports version checking, protocol serialization, and caller-invoked media processing.

## Latest scan

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:** No concrete attack was identified. Inspected lifecycle and flagged source behavior supports version checking, protocol serialization, and caller-invoked media processing.

- **Trigger:** Installation checks the Node.js version; callers activate media helpers.

- **Impact:** No covert credential export, remote payload execution, broad project mutation, or agent control-surface modification was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T06:30:04.908Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Media helpers process supplied inputs, import a fixed decoder, invoke FFmpeg, and perform media requests.

- **Rationale:** Inspected source explains the lifecycle, eval, shell, and network signals through ordinary library behavior. Similarity labels and source-size limits do not establish maliciousness, and no concrete attack chain was found.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json runs a Node.js version check at preinstall; prepare only prints a message, and no runtime self-dependency exists., lib/WABinary/constants.js builds lookup tables from protocol tokens rather than harvesting credentials., WAProto/index.js implements protobuf serialization; targeted searches found no execution or network primitives., lib/Utils/messages-media.js uses eval only to import the fixed audio-decode module and invokes FFmpeg with separate arguments., lib/Utils/messages.js loads caller-selected thumbnail inputs for image processing., The exported uploadFile helper posts caller-provided media to file-hosting services; no internal caller or secret harvesting was found.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to dzyclutch-baileys@1.1.15.

- Avoid installing dzyclutch-baileys@1.1.15. 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.
