Firewall keeps the version blocked under its trusted-intelligence policy. An AI recommendation to allow or warn does not override that advisory. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Importing the package runs a concealed loader. It retrieves encrypted remote code, decrypts and evaluates it. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-11T12:57:13.345Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-11T12:58:11.303Z - **Download time:** 753 ms - **Static scan time:** 249 ms - **AI review time:** 56954 ms - **Total time:** 57958 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

It retrieves encrypted remote code, decrypts and evaluates it. - **Trigger:** Requiring or importing greensaver through its main entry point. - **Impact:** An attacker controlling the remote response can execute arbitrary code in the consuming process. - **Evidence paths:** lib/greensaver.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-11T12:58:11.303Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Base64-hidden remote payload loader with decrypted eval - **Attack narrative:** The package entry point imports lib/greensaver.js. That file decodes hidden code from files disguised as source maps, writes temporary JavaScript and configuration files under node\_modules, then imports the generated loader. Static decoding shows that loader contacts https://www.jsonkeeper.com/b/V6NBX, decrypts a returned session, and evaluates it. The original maps and generated files are then deleted, concealing the chain. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete import-time remote code execution chain concealed in unrelated glob-matching code. The absence of an install hook does not mitigate execution when an application imports the package. - **Files touched:** ./node\_modules/greensaver/lib/parse.ts.map, ./node\_modules/greensaver/lib/init.ts.map, ./node\_modules/greensaver/lib/parsetmp.js, ./node\_modules/greensaver/lib/config.js - **Network endpoints:** https://www.jsonkeeper.com/b/V6NBX ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The main module reconstructs concealed JavaScript from Base64 map files, writes it into node\_modules, and imports it during ordinary package import., The concealed payload fetches an encrypted response from https://www.jsonkeeper.com/b/V6NBX, decrypts it, and evaluates the resulting code., The loader deletes both the concealed source maps and temporary generated files, obscuring the import-time remote-code chain. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no npm install lifecycle hook., The visible library code otherwise implements glob-to-regular-expression matching. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to greensaver@1.2.1. - Avoid installing greensaver@1.2.1. 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
