## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Arbitrary native code execution as the importing user.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Block by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution
- **Selected version:** 35.9.7
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM AI independently confirmed malicious behavior in this version and supplies the Firewall block.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

This is an import-time staged native payload execution chain unrelated to the package’s stated framework purpose. The absence of an npm lifecycle hook does not mitigate execution on normal module import.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0%
- **Started:** 2026-08-05T16:10:44.504Z
- **Finished:** 2026-08-05T16:11:17.483Z

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:** Importing the main module silently starts a remote binary downloader. It drops and executes the received payload detached.

- **Trigger:** Any require/import of index.js

- **Impact:** Arbitrary native code execution as the importing user.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, \_helpers.js, lib/telemetry.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T16:11:17.483Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Remote payload download, disk drop, and detached execution

- **Attack narrative:** Requiring index.js suppresses errors while loading \_helpers.js, whose setup runs immediately. It selects a platform payload URL, downloads an opaque binary from rotating worker hosts or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records, writes it to a temporary path, marks it executable on Unix, and launches it detached via a shell or cmd.exe. The payload is neither authenticated nor inspected.

- **Rationale:** This is an import-time staged native payload execution chain unrelated to the package’s stated framework purpose. The absence of an npm lifecycle hook does not mitigate execution on normal module import.

- **Files touched:** index.js, \_helpers.js, /tmp/.analytics\_state, /var/tmp/.cache\_\<random\>

- **Network endpoints:** https://oob-worker.cf100-416.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf103-070.workers.dev/pkg/package, https://oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev/pkg/package, DNS TXT: sdk.dl.wel1.ru, DNS TXT: ext.dl.wel1.ru, DNS TXT: pkg.dl.wel1.ru

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** index.js imports \_helpers.js at package import time., \_helpers.js downloads platform binaries from rotating hosts., DNS TXT fallback reconstructs a base64 payload., Downloaded bytes are written, chmodded, and detached-spawned., No payload integrity or signature verification is present.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to eacq-acq-menu-core@35.9.7.

- Avoid installing eacq-acq-menu-core@35.9.7. 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.
