## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — The user's account is made to follow and mute channels without consent.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Malware
- **Selected version:** 2.0.1
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **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.

The public socket stack reaches this automatic account action, which uses publisher-selected remote targets and runs on connection without user consent. This is concrete unauthorized account modification and warrants blocking publication.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** After the WhatsApp connection opens, the package automatically follows and mutes newsletter channels selected by a publisher-controlled remote list. This changes the connected account without a user request.

- **Trigger:** The socket receives a connection-open event; the package waits 30 seconds before starting the action.

- **Impact:** The user's account is made to follow and mute channels without consent.

- **Evidence paths:** lib/index.js, lib/Socket/business.js, lib/Socket/messages-send.js, lib/Socket/messages-recv.js, lib/Socket/socket.js, lib/Socket/newsletter.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-12T15:03:31.615Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** It downloads a JSON list of channel IDs, filters for newsletter IDs, and sends follow and mute operations through the connected WhatsApp socket.

- **Attack narrative:** When the WhatsApp connection opens, the newsletter socket waits 30 seconds, fetches a publisher-controlled list of channel IDs, and automatically follows and mutes each valid newsletter. The account changes are sent through the connected WhatsApp socket without a user request.

- **Rationale:** The public socket stack reaches this automatic account action, which uses publisher-selected remote targets and runs on connection without user consent. This is concrete unauthorized account modification and warrants blocking publication.

- **Files touched:** lib/index.js, lib/Socket/business.js, lib/Socket/messages-send.js, lib/Socket/messages-recv.js, lib/Socket/socket.js, lib/Socket/newsletter.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://raw.githubusercontent.com/noxXza/data/refs/heads/main/noxleys.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** The public socket entry point reaches the receive and newsletter socket layers., When the connection opens, the newsletter layer schedules automatic channel joining after a delay., The package fetches newsletter IDs from a publisher-controlled URL, then follows and mutes each accepted ID., Those follow and mute operations are sent through the connected WhatsApp newsletter query., On connection open, a delayed handler loops over IDs and invokes two socket methods for each., After the WhatsApp success callback, the socket emits a connection update with connection set to open.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to noxleyss@2.0.1.

- Avoid installing noxleyss@2.0.1. 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.
