The payload gathers host data, makes network requests, and evaluates returned code. - **Trigger:** npm install/preinstall - **Impact:** Unconsented arbitrary code execution on the installing machine. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, setup.mjs, math\_init.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-04T11:48:19.981Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** remote payload retrieval followed by eval - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package invokes setup.mjs, which obtains Bun if needed and executes math\_init.js. That obfuscated payload contains system-information collection, network modules, and an eval of fetched response content, creating an install-time remote-code-execution chain. - **Rationale:** The preinstall chain executes an opaque, unrelated payload and dynamically evaluates network-delivered code. This is concrete malicious install-time behavior, not a package-aligned build helper. - **Files touched:** package.json, setup.mjs, math\_init.js - **Network endpoints:** https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/releases/download/bun-v1.3.13/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json runs setup.mjs at preinstall., setup.mjs downloads and executes Bun, then runs math\_init.js during install., math\_init.js is a 727KB heavily obfuscated payload., math\_init.js imports child\_process, fs, http/https, dns, crypto, and os., math\_init.js builds host metadata and evals fetched response text. - **Evidence against:** No legitimate package entrypoint source is shipped; declared index.js is absent., The only visible GitHub URL is Bun's release download, but the payload's later request target is obfuscated. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.preinstall = node setup.mjs ``` ### 2. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 3. Low: Eval - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 45.0% - **Path:** math\_init.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package source references a known benign dynamic code generation pattern. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript L1: // @bun @bun-cjs L2: var MmgoCP,etDiOOB,JqTtnbZ,bc3Kak,ZQmUTyQ,TTUgga,MDX6yrw,h8wMJNB,CabwE2L,x5ErqV;function WV8StW(MmgoCP,etDiOOB,JqTtnbZ){for(JqTtnbZ=0x0;JqTtnbZ) Package ships non-JavaScript build or shell helper files.

Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review - **Category:** Artifact Inventory - **Confidence:** 100.0% Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean. ### 10. High: Known Malware Source Similarity - **Category:** Static - **Confidence:** 97.0% - **Path:** setup.mjs - **Public source:** [View source]() Source file is highly similar to a previously finalized malicious package; route for source-aware review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript matchType = normalized_sha256 matchedPackage = @ornikar/storybook-config@12.1.2 matchedPath = setup.mjs matchedIdentity = npm:[redacted]:12.1.2 similarity = 1.000 summary = normalized source hash matched finalized malicious source ``` ### 11. High: Known Malware Source Fingerprint Signature - **Category:** Supply Chain - **Confidence:** 94.0% - **Path:** setup.mjs - **Public source:** [View source]() Source fingerprint signature matches a known malicious package signature; route for source-aware review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript matchType = malicious_source_fingerprint_signature signature = 04ba21a16d3a5a3a signatureType = suspicious_hashes sourceLabel = final_verdict:malicious matchedPackage = @ornikar/eslint-config-babel-use@13.2.7 matchedPath = setup.mjs matchedIdentity = npm:[redacted]:13.2.7 similarity = 1.000 shingleOverlap = 2 summary = package final verdict is malicious ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** preinstall - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** native-frontend-orb - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.1.4 - **License:** MIT - **Version published:** 2026-08-04T10:19:10.529Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-04T11:48:18.272Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-05T00:55:12.164Z - **Known versions:** 16 - **Latest version:** 1.1.19 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Artifact files:** 31 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 752,545 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OSV advisory]() - [WEB]() - [WEB]() - [WEB]() - [PACKAGE]() - [ADVISORY]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]()
