The runtime code detaches and re-executes itself when not already under the service manager. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall, then system service startup - **Impact:** Unconsented persistent execution of obfuscated package code with elevated installation context. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, install.js, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-06T01:18:47.682Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** privileged system-service persistence and detached self-relaunch - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package runs \`sudo node install.js\`. That obfuscated installer constructs a node-linux Service whose script is index.js, installs it, and configures restart behavior. index.js recognizes service-manager context through INVOCATION\_ID and otherwise spawns a detached copy of itself before exiting. This is an unconsented persistence chain, not functionality needed for a Discord-bot library. - **Rationale:** The package establishes a persistent system service during postinstall and hides the implementation with heavy obfuscation. This is concrete malicious install-time persistence. - **Files touched:** package.json, install.js, index.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json: postinstall runs \`sudo node install.js\`, install.js creates and installs a node-linux Service for package code, install.js targets index.js as the service script with restart settings, index.js detects systemd INVOCATION\_ID and relaunches itself detached outside service, Both executable files are deliberately obfuscated, concealing behavior - **Evidence against:** No literal network endpoint was recoverable by source inspection, No explicit credential-file access was identified ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = sudo node install.js ``` ### 2. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = sudo node install.js ``` ### 3. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 4. Medium: Dynamic Require - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package source references dynamic require/import behavior.

Medium: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references environment variables. ### 6. High: Obfuscated Payload Loader - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Source contains an obfuscated payload loader that reconstructs and executes hidden code. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript L1: function a0_0x5735b0(_0x23d4f5,_0x998b43,_0x4761c8,_0x5a92ea,_0x23525a){return a0_0xab33(_0x5a92ea-0x28d,_0x4761c8);}(function(_0xd68be6,_0x3a60e0){function _0x18274a(_0x313c20,_0x... ``` ### 7. High: Obfuscated - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 70.0% Package source appears deliberately obfuscated. ### 8. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 100.0% Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean. ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** postinstall - **Dependencies:** 2 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 2 ### Published dependency entries - js-virtualizer ^1.0.2 (Dependency) - node-linux ^0.1.12 (Dependency) ## Package metadata - **Package:** ezdiscordbots - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.2 - **License:** MIT - **Version published:** 2026-08-05T19:16:43.223Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-06T01:18:47.682Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-06T01:18:47.682Z - **Known versions:** 1 - **Latest version:** 1.0.2 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** Free-to-use package to make your own discord bot. - **Author:** custombots - **Artifact files:** 3 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 68,954 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OSV advisory]() - [PACKAGE]()
