This is a command-injection vulnerability, not confirmed package-directed malware behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-05T07:34:54.311Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-05T07:35:40.260Z - **Download time:** 253 ms - **Static scan time:** 2332 ms - **AI review time:** 43363 ms - **Total time:** 45949 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** A caller that supplies a video path to thumbnail generation may reach an unescaped shell command. This is a command-injection vulnerability, not confirmed package-directed malware behavior. - **Trigger:** An application invokes video thumbnail generation with a path or destination influenced by an attacker. - **Impact:** An attacker may execute commands with the host application's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** lib/Utils/messages-media.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-05T07:35:40.260Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Unescaped path interpolation into an ffmpeg command executed by a shell. - **Rationale:** The source contains a concrete command-injection flaw in a runtime media helper, so it warrants a warning. Static inspection found no evidence that the package steals data, establishes persistence, or intentionally performs malicious install-time actions. - **Files touched:** lib/Utils/messages-media.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The media thumbnail helper interpolates file paths into a shell command and passes it to exec, creating command-injection risk., The package runs an engine-check script automatically during preinstall. - **Evidence against:** The preinstall script only displays an unsupported Node-version message and exits on versions below 20., Network code is for WhatsApp messaging/media operations and a version lookup; no credential harvesting or unrelated exfiltration was found., No persistence, self-dependency, agent-control changes, or opaque payload execution was found. ## 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 ./engine-requirements.js ``` ### 2. Low: Non Install Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 80.0% Package declares lifecycle scripts that are not normally run for registry tarball installs. ### 3. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 4. Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 5. Low: Filesystem - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 70.0% Package source references filesystem APIs. ### 6. Low: High Entropy Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 55.0% Package source contains high-entropy string patterns. ### 7. Low: Url Strings - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 65.0% Package source contains URL literals. ### 8. Medium: Oversized Source File - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 70.0% - **Path:** WAProto/index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package contains source files above the normal full-analysis size ceiling. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript path = WAProto/index.js kind = oversized_source_file sizeBytes = 8472622 magicHex = [redacted] ``` ### 9. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 100.0% Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean. ### 10. Medium: Git Dependency - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 85.0% Package manifest contains a git dependency. ### 11. High: Semantic Analysis Limited - **Category:** Scanner Coverage - **Confidence:** 100.0% - **Path:** lib/Defaults/baileys-version.json - **Public source:** [View source]() A bounded semantic-analysis stage reached its safety limit; remaining detectors completed, but this package requires AI review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json stage = ast_semantic_analysis; reason = ast_parse_error; limitedFiles = 2 ``` ### 12. High: Known Malware Source Similarity - **Category:** Static - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Path:** lib/Utils/messages-media.js - **Public source:** [View source]() 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 = my-auto-follow@1.0.3 matchedPath = lib/Utils/messages-media.js matchedIdentity = npm:bXktYXV0by1mb2xsb3c:1.0.3 similarity = 1.000 summary = normalized source hash matched finalized malicious source ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** preinstall, prepare - **Dependencies:** 21 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 4 - **Development dependencies:** 20 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 25 ### Published dependency entries - @adiwajshing/keyed-db ^0.2.4 (Dependency) - @cacheable/node-cache ^1.4.0 (Dependency) - @hapi/boom ^9.1.3 (Dependency) - async-mutex ^0.5.0 (Dependency) - audio-decode ^2.1.3 (Dependency) - axios ^1.3.3 (Dependency) - cache-manager 4.0.1 (Dependency) - chalk ^4.1.2 (Dependency) - futoin-hkdf ^1.5.1 (Dependency) - gradient-string ^3.0.0 (Dependency) - libphonenumber-js ^1.10.20 (Dependency) - libsignal npm:@shennmine/libsignal-node@^0.0.1-security (Dependency) - lodash ^4.17.21 (Dependency) - music-metadata ^7.12.3 (Dependency) - node-cache ^5.1.2 (Dependency) - node-fetch ^2.6.1 (Dependency) - ora ^6.3.1 (Dependency) - pino ^7.0.0 (Dependency) - protobufjs ^7.2.4 (Dependency) - uuid ^9.0.0 (Dependency) - ws ^8.13.0 (Dependency) - jimp ^0.16.3 (PeerDependency) - link-preview-js ^3.0.0 (PeerDependency) - qrcode-terminal ^0.12.0 (PeerDependency) - sharp ^0.34.2 (PeerDependency) ## Package metadata - **Package:** kiki-baileys - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.0 - **License:** MIT - **Version published:** 2026-09-05T07:14:23.066Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-09-05T07:35:40.260Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-09-05T08:10:45.485Z - **Known versions:** 3 - **Latest version:** 1.0.2 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** Whatsapp baileys coded by Fallzx-Coderid. - **Author:** Adhiraj Singh - **Maintainers:** rizkyzdni - **Keywords:** whatsapp, lily-baileys, baileys, whatsapp-web, whatsapp-chat, fallzx, wabot, botwa, stvnnvs - **Runtime engines:** node: \>=20.0.0 - **Artifact files:** 194 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 9,825,809 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [Repository]() - [Homepage]() - [Issues]()
