The payload receives powerful Node globals and custom module loading. - **Trigger:** Consumer invokes the default-exported getPlugin function. - **Impact:** Remote operator can execute arbitrary JavaScript in the consuming process. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-12T16:26:49.750Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Remote response code execution through Function. - **Attack narrative:** A consumer calling the package’s default export causes a request to a hard-coded IP endpoint. The package parses the JSON response and supplies its credits field to the Function constructor, then invokes the result with require, process, global, Buffer, and path context. This lets the endpoint operator run arbitrary code with the consumer process’s permissions. - **Rationale:** The exported runtime behavior is an unauthenticated remote payload loader and executor, unrelated to the stated trading utility purpose. Lack of lifecycle hooks limits activation to API use but does not remove the concrete RCE behavior. - **Files touched:** index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://31.97.137.157:45000/icons/108 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Default API targets a fixed remote IP endpoint., Remote JSON response is passed directly to Function., Executed payload receives require, process, global, and filesystem path context., The remote-code loader is the package’s default export. - **Evidence against:** package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., Import defines the loader but does not invoke it immediately., No first-party credential harvesting or file writes are present in the inspected files. ## Public findings ### 1. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 2. High: Eval - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 80.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package source references dynamic code evaluation. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript L149: // Note: The code uses async/await, so we need to handle that L150: const evalFn = new Function( L151: 'require', 'module', 'exports', '__dirname', '__filename', 'console', 'process', 'global', 'Buffer', 'setTimeout', 'setInterval', 'clearTimeout', 'clearInterval', 'Promise', ``` ### 3. Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 4. Critical: Remote Response Code Execution - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Source passes code obtained from a remote response into a dynamic execution sink. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript L6: L7: // Create require that resolves from the project root (where package.json and node_modules are) L8: const projectRoot = resolve(dirname(fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)), '..'); ...
