Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — The directory account is changed and receives the server details without a specific confirmation for this action. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Malware - **Selected version:** 0.62.3 - **Selected version is latest:** No - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Source inspection confirms an automatic, authenticated account change that is not gated by the user's publish choice. The directory is package-configured, and the code itself describes the action as occurring without being asked. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-21T09:44:29.036Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-21T09:45:44.450Z - **Download time:** 2785 ms - **Static scan time:** 8268 ms - **AI review time:** 64358 ms - **Total time:** 75414 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:** Server startup automatically adds the machine to the signed-in account at the Nixamp directory. This account change can occur even when publishing is disabled. - **Trigger:** Starting the server with a session token and a publishable address. - **Impact:** The directory account is changed and receives the server details without a specific confirmation for this action. - **Evidence paths:** dist/server.js, dist/directory.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-21T09:45:44.450Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The server sends an authenticated POST with the machine's address, name, and key; this request is separate from the publish-setting check. - **Attack narrative:** On server startup, if a saved session token and publishable address are present, the package posts the machine's address, name, and key to the Nixamp directory using the token. This account mutation is separate from the publish-setting check, so it can occur even when publishing is disabled. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms an automatic, authenticated account change that is not gated by the user's publish choice. The directory is package-configured, and the code itself describes the action as occurring without being asked. - **Files touched:** dist/server.js, dist/directory.js - **Network endpoints:** https://nixamp.com/api/v1/servers ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** When a signed-in server has a publishable address, startup posts to the directory with the session token and server details., The code describes this account change as happening without being asked; the request is not gated by the separate publish setting. - **Evidence against:** The destination is the package's configured Nixamp directory, and the code says a prior manual command performed the same account action. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to nixamp@0.62.3. - Avoid installing nixamp@0.62.3. 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.
