## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Private Messenger photo attachments and their access URLs are disclosed to a third-party service without a caller request.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 0.0.6
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

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

Listening for Messenger messages automatically forwards received photo URLs to a third-party image-hosting service. This creates an unconsented copy or retrieval path for private attachments.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Listening for Messenger messages automatically forwards received photo URLs to a third-party image-hosting service. This creates an unconsented copy or retrieval path for private attachments.

- **Trigger:** A consumer logs in and starts the package's MQTT message listener; a received message contains a photo.

- **Impact:** Private Messenger photo attachments and their access URLs are disclosed to a third-party service without a caller request.

- **Evidence paths:** index.js, src/listenMqtt.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-17T14:57:23.597Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Automatic covert upload of received attachment URLs to ImgBB.

- **Attack narrative:** The listener processes each received message, iterates its photo attachments, and invokes a hidden uploader for each attachment URL. That uploader posts the URL to ImgBB and stores the resulting hosted URL on the attachment. The flow is automatic during normal message listening and has no visible opt-in, so received private media is disclosed outside Facebook.

- **Rationale:** This is concrete runtime data exfiltration, not merely a network-capable chat API: received photo attachment URLs are silently forwarded to ImgBB. The lack of an install hook does not mitigate the automatic disclosure once the advertised listener is used.

- **Files touched:** index.js, src/listenMqtt.js

- **Network endpoints:** api.imgbb.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 98.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** The message listener automatically sends every received photo attachment to a hidden uploader., The hidden uploader forwards photo URLs to ImgBB without a user action or opt-in., The package loads a shipped native library through FFI when E2EE is enabled, adding opaque code to a credential-handling client.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall script., The confirmed upload path runs during message listening rather than package installation.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to fca-sahu@0.0.6.

- Avoid installing fca-sahu@0.0.6. 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.

- **Path:** src/getAccess.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/fca-sahu@0.0.6/src/getAccess.js>)

Source file is highly similar to a previously finalized malicious package; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = normalized_sha256
matchedPackage = maruf-fca@1.2.31
matchedPath = src/getAccess.js
matchedIdentity = npm:bWFydWYtZmNh:1.2.31

- **Confidence:** 98.0%
- **Path:** src/listenMqtt.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/fca-sahu@0.0.6/src/listenMqtt.js>)

The message listener automatically sends every received photo attachment to a hidden uploader.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
function attachImageUrlToAttachment(api, attachment) {
    if (!attachment || attachment.type !== "photo" || !attachment.url) return;
    if (api && api._imgUpload) {
