The channel list is controlled by a remote GitHub file. - **Trigger:** A consumer opens a WhatsApp connection through the library. - **Impact:** It changes the user's WhatsApp account subscriptions without consent and lets the remote list select future targets. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, engine-requirements.js, lib/Socket/newsletter.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-27T09:28:59.348Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote-controlled, automatic WhatsApp newsletter follow and mute actions. - **Attack narrative:** When a WhatsApp connection opens, the package waits 30 seconds and fetches a remotely controlled list of newsletter IDs. For every matching ID, it sends follow and mute requests through the authenticated WhatsApp session. This is hidden account manipulation, not a requested library operation, and the remote list can change the targets after publication. - **Rationale:** The package contains concrete, unconsented runtime account manipulation controlled by a remote endpoint. Its benign Node-version preinstall check does not mitigate that behavior. - **Files touched:** package.json, engine-requirements.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:** On every successful WhatsApp connection, the library schedules an automatic channel-joining routine., The routine downloads a maintainer-controlled list of newsletter IDs, then follows and mutes each valid ID without user consent., The install hook only checks the Node.js major version; the harmful behavior occurs later at runtime. - **Evidence against:** The preinstall script only rejects Node.js versions below 20., No source evidence found of credential harvesting, local secret collection, or AI-agent configuration changes. ## Public findings ### 1.
