It also mutates the consuming project and dependency files during postinstall. - **Trigger:** Running the backup, publish, or build CLI commands; project mutations occur automatically at postinstall. - **Impact:** Project configuration and identifying build metadata can be disclosed to a package-controlled third party; installation also changes project and dependency state. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, bin/build.js, bin/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-27T03:50:04.599Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Uploads local project data and host metadata through shell-based Telegram requests. - **Attack narrative:** Installation immediately runs a script that rewrites the consumer project and patches installed dependencies. Separately, named CLI backup and build or publish paths use hard-coded Telegram destinations to transmit configuration files, workstation identity, and build or publisher metadata. These transfers are not directed to a user-configured destination and use shell commands. The CLI can also execute code supplied in project configuration during publishing. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms local-data transmission to hard-coded third-party Telegram destinations plus broad automatic postinstall mutation. Although the network actions require named CLI commands, the hard-coded reporting and executable configuration make this package unsafe. - **Files touched:** package.json, config.live.json, config.debug.json, app.json, ../../package.json, ../../app.json, ../../node\_modules/react-native/Libraries/Core/Timers/JSTimers.js, ../../node\_modules/@react-navigation/core/src/useNavigationBuilder.tsx - **Network endpoints:** https://api.telegram.org ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The postinstall hook runs a setup script that rewrites the consuming project's package manifest., An explicit backup command sends a project configuration file and the local username and hostname to a hard-coded Telegram destination., The publish flow sends build and publisher metadata to a hard-coded Telegram destination., The CLI evaluates a configurable post-publish script as code., The install script also changes files in installed third-party dependencies. - **Evidence against:** The Telegram transmissions are reached through named CLI backup or publish actions, not automatically during installation., No environment-variable harvesting, credential-file search, or remote response passed to an execution sink was found in the inspected paths., The install hook appears to scaffold an Expo application, although its broad mutations are unsafe. ## Public findings ### 1.
