AI Security Review
scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is a concrete import-time remote-code-execution chain, not merely suspicious primitives. The hidden endpoint and token obfuscation, detached execution, and unrelated exported functionality indicate malicious intent.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Any runtime import of the `index.js` entrypoint.
Impact
Remote operator can run arbitrary Node.js code in the importing user's environment.
Mechanism
Detached remote payload retrieval and dynamic code execution.
Attack narrative
On import, `index.js` silently detaches a Node process running `lib/caller.js`. That helper is obfuscated and duplicated as `lib/config.js`; its visible equivalent payload in `lib/levels.js` fetches a URL assembled from hidden configuration using a hidden authorization value. If the response is a 404 containing `data.token`, it passes that server-controlled string to `Function.constructor` with `require`, enabling arbitrary code execution outside the package's stated functionality.
AI rationale
This is a concrete import-time remote-code-execution chain, not merely suspicious primitives. The hidden endpoint and token obfuscation, detached execution, and unrelated exported functionality indicate malicious intent.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- `index.js` immediately spawns `lib/caller.js` detached when imported.
- `lib/caller.js` is 67 KB obfuscated code using `Function(...)` dynamic evaluation.
- `lib/caller.js` loads Axios and hidden values from `./config`.
- `lib/levels.js` shows the payload logic: Axios GET with a hidden bearer-like token.
- On HTTP 404, `lib/levels.js` executes server-provided `error.response.data.token` via `Function.constructor`.
- `lib/config.js` is byte-identical to the obfuscated `lib/caller.js`, concealing the endpoint and credentials.
Evidence against
- `package.json` has no npm lifecycle hook.
- No package-local file write, deletion, or AI-agent configuration mutation was found.

Cross File Remote Execution Context
Source spawns a local helper that also contains network and dynamic execution context; review data flow before blocking.

Affected versions and remediation
This report applies to eth-react-redirection@1.0.1.
The versions list below shows the verdict for each recorded version.
- Avoid installing eth-react-redirection@1.0.1. 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.
