Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — Uses the user’s WhatsApp account to follow a channel without an explicit request, potentially altering the account and boosting the publisher’s audience. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Block by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Malware - **Selected version:** 1.0.0 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) LPM AI independently confirmed malicious behavior in this version and supplies the Firewall block. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package automatically uses the connected WhatsApp account to follow a hard-coded newsletter chosen by the publisher. This unsolicited account action is triggered by default during socket connection, so the package is malicious. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 98.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-05T06:52:28.521Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-05T06:53:18.223Z - **Download time:** 2587 ms - **Static scan time:** 6395 ms - **AI review time:** 40717 ms - **Total time:** 49702 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Automatically follows a publisher-chosen WhatsApp newsletter when a socket connects. - **Trigger:** Creating a makeWASocket connection and reaching the open state; the default delay is 90 seconds. - **Impact:** Uses the user’s WhatsApp account to follow a channel without an explicit request, potentially altering the account and boosting the publisher’s audience. - **Evidence paths:** lib/Defaults/index.js, lib/Socket/index.js, lib/Socket/newsletter.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-05T06:53:18.223Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The socket setup calls triggerAutoFollow, which sends a FOLLOW query for the hard-coded newsletter unless the caller disables the feature. - **Attack narrative:** When an application creates a WhatsApp socket, the package schedules an automatic follow action. After the connection opens and a delay passes, it sends a FOLLOW query to the hard-coded newsletter 120363409557700746@newsletter. The behavior is enabled by default and can only be avoided by overriding the configuration. - **Rationale:** The package automatically uses the connected WhatsApp account to follow a hard-coded newsletter chosen by the publisher. This unsolicited account action is triggered by default during socket connection, so the package is malicious. - **Files touched:** lib/Defaults/index.js, lib/Socket/index.js, lib/Socket/newsletter.js - **Network endpoints:** web.whatsapp.com, @s.whatsapp.net ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The package’s main entry exports makeWASocket, which constructs a socket and calls triggerAutoFollow., The default connection configuration enables auto-follow and names newsletter 120363409557700746@newsletter., triggerAutoFollow runs unless explicitly disabled, then waits for the connection to open and calls runAutoFollow., runAutoFollow sends a WhatsApp FOLLOW query containing the selected newsletter ID. - **Evidence against:** The package describes itself as a modded Baileys library for WhatsApp bot development., The manifest has no install, preinstall, or postinstall lifecycle hook. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to ichigokurosaki-baileys@1.0.0. - Avoid installing ichigokurosaki-baileys@1.0.0. 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.
