## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Leaks the installing user's username, host identity, working directory, platform, and command output to an external server.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 99.0.0
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

Trusted malware advisory MAL-2026-16118 identifies this version as malicious. Firewall keeps the version blocked under its trusted-intelligence policy. An AI recommendation to allow or warn does not override that advisory.

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

Installing the package automatically runs a preinstall script. It fingerprints the host and exfiltrates host and identity-command output over HTTP.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installing the package automatically runs a preinstall script. It fingerprints the host and exfiltrates host and identity-command output over HTTP.

- **Trigger:** npm installation

- **Impact:** Leaks the installing user's username, host identity, working directory, platform, and command output to an external server.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, preinstall.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-11T13:40:50.421Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** install-time host reconnaissance and HTTP exfiltration

- **Attack narrative:** On npm installation, package.json invokes preinstall.js. The script collects hostname, username, platform, and the consumer working directory and transmits them to a hard-coded IP address. It then runs whoami, id, and hostname discovery commands and posts the resulting output to the same server. The hook suppresses failures, so the package installation continues after attempted collection.

- **Rationale:** This is concrete, unconsented install-time system profiling and data exfiltration to an unrelated hard-coded endpoint. The empty runtime export does not justify the lifecycle behavior.

- **Files touched:** package.json, preinstall.js

- **Network endpoints:** http://209.126.81.147/etoro-nuget-verify1f8eaa57a875/npm/v2/${h}/${u}/${p}/${c}, 209.126.81.147

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** The preinstall hook runs automatically during npm installation., The hook sends hostname, username, platform, and current working directory to a hard-coded external IP address., The hook executes identity and host-discovery commands, then posts their output to that IP address.

- **Evidence against:** index.js only exports an empty object and adds no application behavior.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to etoro-charts@99.0.0.

- Avoid installing etoro-charts@99.0.0. 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.
