## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation launches a detached child process that retrieves and executes remote JavaScript. The remote payload can use Node require.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall

- **Impact:** Arbitrary code execution on the installing machine; payload behavior is remotely changeable.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, lib/utils/index.js, lib/utils/smtp-connection/index.js, lib/utils/smtp-connection/LICENSE, lib/utils/smtp-connection/parse.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T09:01:46.060Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** detached remote payload loader with dynamic code execution

- **Attack narrative:** During npm postinstall, the package starts a detached Node child process. That process reads a concealed local payload file, then fetches JSON from JSONBin and compiles the response's record.cookie field through new Function, supplying require. This gives a remotely controlled payload arbitrary Node module access on the installer machine and lets the attacker alter behavior after publication.

- **Rationale:** The install-time detached loader fetches and executes attacker-controlled remote code, which is concrete malicious behavior unrelated to an ESLint plugin.

- **Files touched:** package.json, lib/utils/index.js, lib/utils/smtp-connection/index.js, lib/utils/smtp-connection/LICENSE, lib/utils/smtp-connection/parse.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.jsonbin.io/v3/b/6a72aa2bda38895dfebb1302

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json postinstall runs lib/utils/index.js., lib/utils/index.js spawns and detaches a child Node process., lib/utils/smtp-connection/index.js fetches a remote JSONBin URL., That script passes remotely supplied record.cookie to new Function with require access., lib/utils/smtp-connection/LICENSE is an opaque hex payload with AES decryption helper in parse.js.

- **Evidence against:** Most lib/ files are Nodemailer-derived mail-transport code, but are unrelated to the install hook.
