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. This is a concrete runtime command-injection vulnerability, but the inspected source does not show malicious install behavior, secret theft, or persistence. The package should be warned until the ffmpeg invocation uses argument-safe process execution. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-11T07:54:59.070Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-11T07:56:19.570Z - **Download time:** 520 ms - **Static scan time:** 2680 ms - **AI review time:** 77298 ms - **Total time:** 80500 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-send path can invoke a shell with an unquoted media pathname. No install-time attack surface is present. - **Trigger:** An application passes a video with no JPEG thumbnail and allows an attacker to control the local media pathname. - **Impact:** An attacker may execute shell commands as the host application user. - **Evidence paths:** lib/Utils/messages-media.js, lib/Utils/messages.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-11T07:56:19.570Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Shell command injection through unquoted ffmpeg arguments. - **Rationale:** This is a concrete runtime command-injection vulnerability, but the inspected source does not show malicious install behavior, secret theft, or persistence. The package should be warned until the ffmpeg invocation uses argument-safe process execution. - **Files touched:** lib/Utils/messages-media.js, lib/Utils/messages.js ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Critical Vulnerability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** Video thumbnail generation builds a shell command by interpolating path values without quoting., The public media-preparation path takes caller-supplied media and invokes thumbnail generation for videos lacking a thumbnail. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts or self-dependency., No credential harvesting, persistence, or unrelated exfiltration was found., Network code is for WhatsApp media and version operations, not a hidden package-controlled endpoint. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to lordceaser-baileys@2.0.44. - Review the evidence and your use of lordceaser-baileys@2.0.44 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.

High: Previous Version Dangerous Delta - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 93.0% - **Path:** lib/Utils/messages-media.js - **Public source:** [View source]() This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta matchedPackage = lordceaser-baileys@2.0.42 matchedIdentity = npm:bG9yZGNlYXNlci1iYWlsZXlz:2.0.42 similarity = 1.000 summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file ``` ### 7. Medium: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** lib/Utils/messages-media.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Video thumbnail generation builds a shell command by interpolating path values without quoting. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript /** Extracts video thumb using FFMPEG */ const extractVideoThumb = async (path, destPath, time, size) => new Promise((resolve, reject) => { const cmd = `ffmpeg -ss ${time} -i ${path} -y -vf scale=${size.width}:-1 -vframes 1 -f image2 ${destPath}`; (0, child_process_1.exec)(cmd, (err) => { if (err) { reject(err); } else { resolve(); } }); }); ``` ### 8. Medium: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** lib/Utils/messages.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The public media-preparation path takes caller-supplied media and invokes thumbnail generation for videos lacking a thumbnail. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript const prepareWAMessageMedia = async (message, options) => { const logger = options.logger; let mediaType; for (const key of Defaults_1.MEDIA_KEYS) { if (key in message) { mediaType = key; } } if (!mediaType) { throw new boom_1.Boom('Invalid media type', { statusCode: 400 }); } const uploadData = { ...message, media: message[mediaType] }; delete uploadData[mediaType]; ``` ### 9. Medium: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Path:** lib/Utils/messages.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The public media-preparation path takes caller-supplied media and invokes thumbnail generation for videos lacking a thumbnail.
