It can also modify that project's package.json. - **Trigger:** Importing fca-nx/index.js when the registry reports nx-fca newer than the inferred version. - **Impact:** Unconsented dependency installation and persistence of nx-fca in the consumer project. - **Evidence paths:** index.js, checkUpdate.js, package.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-15T10:56:34.834Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Import-time silent cross-package npm install and manifest mutation. - **Attack narrative:** Importing fca-nx schedules a silent updater. Its configured target is nx-fca, not the manifest's fca-nx; because its self-version check rejects fca-nx, it can treat the installed package as version 1.0.0. If nx-fca is newer, it invokes npm install nx-fca@\ --save in the consumer working directory and updates that dependency entry. - **Rationale:** This is concrete unconsented import-time mutation of a consumer project, directed at a package name different from the reviewed package. The documented updater claims it installs fca-nx, but the source installs nx-fca. - **Files touched:** index.js, checkUpdate.js, package.json - **Network endpoints:** https://registry.npmjs.org/nx-fca/latest ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Importing index.js schedules an automatic update check., Updater targets nx-fca although this package is fca-nx., The updater runs npm install in the consumer project., It then rewrites the consumer package.json when nx-fca is present. - **Evidence against:** package.json contains no npm lifecycle hook., Facebook API and E2EE code are consistent with the stated package purpose. ## Public findings ### 1.
