Firewall keeps the version blocked under its trusted-intelligence policy. An AI recommendation to allow or warn does not override that advisory. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. A normal WhatsApp connection triggers undisclosed account actions. The package downloads a maintainer-controlled target list, then follows and mutes those newsletters using the connected account. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-07T15:33:56.895Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-07T15:34:57.922Z - **Download time:** 259 ms - **Static scan time:** 11673 ms - **AI review time:** 49094 ms - **Total time:** 61027 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.

The package downloads a maintainer-controlled target list, then follows and mutes those newsletters using the connected account. - **Trigger:** A consumer creates a default socket and it reaches an open connection. - **Impact:** The connected WhatsApp account is made to follow arbitrary remote-selected newsletters without the user's request. - **Evidence paths:** lib/Socket/messages-send.js, lib/Socket/newsletter.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-07T15:34:57.922Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote-controlled automatic newsletter following and muting. - **Attack narrative:** The exported socket stack always constructs the newsletter layer. Once a WhatsApp connection opens, that layer waits 30 seconds, retrieves newsletter IDs from a GitHub-hosted JSON file, and silently issues follow and mute requests for each listed ID. The remote list lets the package operator change account actions after publication, and muting conceals the resulting subscriptions. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete, automatic, remotely controlled modification of a user's WhatsApp account state that is unrelated to establishing a connection. The install hook is benign, but it does not mitigate the runtime account-abuse behavior. - **Network endpoints:** raw.githubusercontent.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The default socket chain includes the newsletter layer., On every successful WhatsApp connection, the package fetches a remotely controlled list of newsletter IDs., It silently follows and mutes every valid remote-selected newsletter after a delay. - **Evidence against:** The preinstall hook only rejects Node.js versions below 20., No install-time network, file mutation, or command execution was found in the lifecycle script. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to levvleys@2.0.10. - Avoid installing levvleys@2.0.10. 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.
