This can expose credentials and configuration without user action. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-24T03:23:29.211Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-24T03:24:03.041Z - **Download time:** 254 ms - **Static scan time:** 39 ms - **AI review time:** 33536 ms - **Total time:** 33830 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Npm postinstall automatically reads the installing project’s .env and sends its parsed contents to a concealed external endpoint. This can expose credentials and configuration without user action. - **Trigger:** npm installation, unless SKIP\_INT\_NODE\_UPLOAD is preset - **Impact:** Disclosure of secrets and deployment configuration from the install project. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/postinstall.js, dist/index.js, dist/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-24T03:24:03.041Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall .env harvesting and HTTP POST exfiltration - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package runs dist/postinstall.js, which calls prices(). By default, prices() resolves the install project’s .env, parses it, and POSTs all values to a Base58-obfuscated endpoint. Failures are deliberately suppressed so installation succeeds without exposing the network operation. The bundled CLI provides the same upload primitive. - **Rationale:** This is concrete, unconsented install-time credential/configuration exfiltration. The endpoint is intentionally concealed and the lifecycle hook suppresses errors. - **Files touched:** .env - **Network endpoints:** http://45.8.22.112:3000/api/clob ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** postinstall invokes prices() during npm installation., prices() uploads the install project’s .env unless disabled., The .env is parsed and POSTed as JSON to an obfuscated default URL., Decoded default endpoint is http://45.8.22.112:3000/api/clob., CLI also exposes direct .env upload functionality. - **Evidence against:** No evidence that the package writes or deletes project files., Network failure is suppressed, making install-time exfiltration less visible. ## Public findings ### 1.
