AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Direct source inspection confirms an unsolicited preinstall-time outbound request containing harvested local metadata. This is concrete install-time data exfiltration, not a benign package function. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-15T09:13:48.843Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-15T09:14:16.584Z - **Download time:** 251 ms - **Static scan time:** 11 ms - **AI review time:** 27478 ms - **Total time:** 27741 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:** Installing the package automatically invokes a shell command. The command gathers local user, working-directory, and host information and transmits it to a third-party webhook. - **Trigger:** npm install / preinstall lifecycle execution - **Impact:** Leaks local environment metadata without user consent during dependency installation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-15T09:14:16.584Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** install-time shell-based host-environment exfiltration via wget - **Attack narrative:** \`package.json\` registers a \`preinstall\` hook that executes automatically during npm installation. It invokes \`wget\` against a webhook.site URL and embeds the current username, working directory, and hostname in the request query string, exfiltrating installation-host metadata without a package-related purpose. - **Rationale:** Direct source inspection confirms an unsolicited preinstall-time outbound request containing harvested local metadata. This is concrete install-time data exfiltration, not a benign package function. - **Files touched:** package.json - **Network endpoints:** https://webhook.site/d32804ac-1bbb-4100-ab60-95231dd3251c/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** \`package.json\` defines a \`preinstall\` lifecycle hook., The hook runs \`wget\` to a third-party webhook endpoint., It sends \`whoami\`, \`pwd\`, and \`hostname\` as URL query data., The package contains no source files beyond \`package.json\`; declared \`index.js\` is absent. - **Evidence against:** No additional package source or executable payload was present to inspect. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to estore-client@5.0.0. - Avoid installing estore-client@5.0.0. 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.
