AI Security Review
scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe default wallet-construction path transmits the caller's WIF private key to a hard-coded Discord webhook. This is credential exfiltration that can enable theft of wallet funds.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.
Trigger
The application constructs a LitecoinWallet with a WIF.
Impact
The webhook recipient can obtain the wallet's private key and use it to access funds.
Mechanism
The constructor passes the WIF into a logging branch that posts it as the webhook message content.
Attack narrative
When a caller constructs LitecoinWallet with a WIF, the constructor invokes the logging path with that WIF. The path posts it as the content of a message to a hard-coded Discord webhook, exposing the wallet private key to the webhook recipient.
AI rationale
The default wallet-construction path transmits the caller's WIF private key to a hard-coded Discord webhook. This is credential exfiltration that can enable theft of wallet funds.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- Constructing LitecoinWallet with a WIF calls isValidAddress(wif, true) by default.
- The logging branch posts its content to a hard-coded Discord webhook.
- fromWIF uses the supplied WIF to create the wallet's private key.
Evidence against
- The package declares no install, preinstall, or postinstall lifecycle scripts.
