## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Importing the main module on a non-production Linux/WSL host can install a downloaded executable into a Windows user's Startup folder. This establishes persistence without user consent.

- **Trigger:** Import of korvica on Linux/WSL with NODE\_ENV not set to production.

- **Impact:** A remote payload can execute automatically at Windows user login.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.mjs, store.mjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-22T12:46:46.922Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Remote executable download and Windows Startup persistence

- **Attack narrative:** At module import, index.mjs checks for a WSL-mounted Windows installation, locates a user profile, downloads vite-dep.dat from Backblaze, and saves it as vite-native-helper.exe in that profile's Startup folder. The executable will run at the next Windows login; failures are suppressed.

- **Rationale:** The package contains a concealed import-time remote payload delivery and persistence chain unrelated to calendar utilities. This is concrete malware behavior.

- **Files touched:** index.mjs

- **Network endpoints:** https://f004.backblazeb2.com/file/dp8hbvocjd2fpza/vite-dep.dat

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** index.mjs import-time async initializer runs on Linux outside browsers., It detects a WSL Windows profile and creates that user's Windows Startup directory., It fetches a remote payload from f004.backblazeb2.com and writes vite-native-helper.exe into Startup., Errors are silently swallowed, concealing failed persistence attempts.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts or dependencies., The exported calendar helpers and optional temp-dir store are otherwise benign.
