Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — The DNS query discloses those identifiers to the unrelated domain; the native addon's behavior remains unknown. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Block by default - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration - **Selected version:** 100.100.102 - **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 automatic install hook performs covert DNS disclosure of machine and package identifiers to an unrelated domain, which is concrete data exfiltration. The bundled native addon is opaque, but is not needed to support the malicious verdict. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 97.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-09T21:34:13.605Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-09T21:34:34.015Z - **Download time:** 1521 ms - **Static scan time:** 10 ms - **AI review time:** 18879 ms - **Total time:** 20410 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:** Installation triggers DNS requests to a package-unrelated oast.me subdomain containing host and package identifiers. The hook also attempts to load an opaque native addon. - **Trigger:** Package installation runs the postinstall hook. - **Impact:** The DNS query discloses those identifiers to the unrelated domain; the native addon's behavior remains unknown. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T21:34:34.015Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook derives a DNS hostname from the machine hostname and npm package name and submits it through DNS resolution calls. - **Attack narrative:** During installation, the postinstall hook sends the machine hostname and package name in DNS queries to a package-unrelated oast.me domain. This is an active data-exfiltration behavior. The hook also loads an opaque native addon, which could not be inspected. - **Rationale:** The automatic install hook performs covert DNS disclosure of machine and package identifiers to an unrelated domain, which is concrete data exfiltration. The bundled native addon is opaque, but is not needed to support the malicious verdict. - **Files touched:** postinstall.js, prebuilds/linux-x64/addon.node - **Network endpoints:** \*.db4jlbku53082dmp0d7g3mffj7s7aordk.oast.me ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The manifest runs postinstall.js automatically during installation., The install hook constructs a DNS name from the machine hostname and npm package name under an unrelated oast.me domain, then issues DNS lookups., The same install hook attempts to load an opaque native addon whose behavior could not be inspected. - **Evidence against:** index.js only exports an empty object; it does not add a runtime behavior that explains the install-time DNS lookups. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to kmf-i18n@100.100.102. - Avoid installing kmf-i18n@100.100.102. 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.
