## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installing the package automatically executes index.js. It fingerprints the host and exfiltrates the collected data over HTTPS.

- **Trigger:** npm installation (preinstall)

- **Impact:** Leaks host identity, home-directory path, and configured DNS servers to a third party.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js, f0-data-constructor-28.0.0.tgz

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-26T17:40:08.096Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** install-time host fingerprinting and HTTPS exfiltration

- **Attack narrative:** During npm preinstall, package.json invokes index.js without user action. The script gathers local host and network-configuration identifiers and sends them as JSON to an external oastify.com endpoint, creating a concrete dependency-confusion reconnaissance/exfiltration path.

- **Rationale:** Direct source inspection confirms unconsented install-time collection and external transmission of host data. This is concrete malicious behavior, not merely a suspicious primitive.

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

- **Network endpoints:** https://rb6etzw0lznpijvfl5m5ujmyrpxhl99y.oastify.com/hit

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json runs \`node index.js\` in preinstall., index.js collects hostname, platform, architecture, home path, and DNS servers., index.js POSTs the collected JSON to an external OAST host., Manifest describes the package as a dependency-confusion proof of concept.

- **Evidence against:** No additional executable files or dependencies were found., No shell execution, payload download, or destructive file operation was found.

### 4. High: Host Fingerprint Exfiltration
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 86.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/f0-data-constructor@28.0.0/index.js>)

Source collects local host identity data and sends it to an external endpoint.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L1: const https = require("https");
L2: const os = require("os");
L3: const dns = require("dns");
L4: 
L5: const data = JSON.stringify({
L6: hostname: os.hostname(),
L7: platform: os.platform(),
...
L26: 
L27: req.write(data);
L28: req.end();
```

### 5. Low: High Entropy Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
