Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package has no install-time behavior or observed exfiltration, but its runtime thumbnail implementation contains a concrete shell-injection vulnerability. This warrants a warning rather than a malicious-package block. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-07T14:30:41.023Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-07T14:31:46.008Z - **Download time:** 256 ms - **Static scan time:** 1908 ms - **AI review time:** 62820 ms - **Total time:** 64985 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:** A runtime video-thumbnail path builds a shell command from an unquoted media file path. Caller-controlled path content can reach the shell when an application sends a video without a supplied thumbnail. - **Trigger:** Application code passes an attacker-influenced video file path to the media send API without jpegThumbnail. - **Impact:** Arbitrary commands may run with the host application's privileges. - **Evidence paths:** lib/Utils/messages.js, lib/Utils/messages-media.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-07T14:31:46.008Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Shell command injection through an unquoted ffmpeg input path. - **Rationale:** The package has no install-time behavior or observed exfiltration, but its runtime thumbnail implementation contains a concrete shell-injection vulnerability. This warrants a warning rather than a malicious-package block. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The video thumbnail helper interpolates a path into a shell command and runs it with exec., Video messages automatically request thumbnail generation when no thumbnail is supplied; media inputs can be caller-provided file paths. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., The observed network code supports WhatsApp messaging and media operations; no credential exfiltration or persistence path was found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to lordceaser-baileys@1.0.21. - Review the evidence and your use of lordceaser-baileys@1.0.21 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
