## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Arbitrary code execution in the installing user's environment with npm install privileges.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Block by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution
- **Selected version:** 1.0.1
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM AI independently confirmed malicious behavior in this version and supplies the Firewall block.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

This is a concrete unconsented install-time remote-code-execution chain, not a package-aligned dependency check. The benign exported helpers do not mitigate the malicious lifecycle behavior.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation triggers unpinned remote payload retrieval and execution. The remote configuration can select the bundle, including through environment overrides and redirects.

- **Trigger:** Automatic npm \`postinstall\` execution.

- **Impact:** Arbitrary code execution in the installing user's environment with npm install privileges.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/install-check.cjs, index.js, kelly.js, README.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-14T07:48:35.474Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Remote bundle download, extraction, dependency installation, dynamic require, and immediate execution.

- **Attack narrative:** On npm installation, the postinstall script fetches a JSON config from the declared homepage unless overridden by environment variables. That config supplies a remote \`.tgz\`; the script follows redirects, extracts it into \`.peer/\`, runs \`npm install\` in that directory, dynamically loads \`.peer/peer-math.js\`, and invokes \`syncSession()\`. The downloaded code is neither pinned nor verified, so the package publisher or config host can execute arbitrary code on every install.

- **Rationale:** This is a concrete unconsented install-time remote-code-execution chain, not a package-aligned dependency check. The benign exported helpers do not mitigate the malicious lifecycle behavior.

- **Files touched:** package.json, scripts/install-check.cjs, .peer/, .peer/peer-math.js, .peer/node\_modules/

- **Network endpoints:** https://jipred.vercel.app/config/clob-math.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** \`package.json\` runs \`scripts/install-check.cjs\` as \`postinstall\`., Install script obtains a config URL from environment or the package homepage., It fetches an attacker-controlled bundle URL, follows redirects, and writes a \`.tgz\` locally., It extracts the bundle into \`.peer/\`, runs \`npm install\` there, then requires \`.peer/peer-math.js\`., It immediately invokes the remotely supplied module's \`syncSession()\` during installation., README/package naming describe a different package, inconsistent with the install payload.

- **Evidence against:** \`index.js\` and \`kelly.js\` only export local Kelly-stake math helpers., No credential harvesting or exfiltration appears in the shipped runtime entry points.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to polymarket-bot-logger@1.0.1.

- Avoid installing polymarket-bot-logger@1.0.1. 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.
- If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment.
