Failures are deliberately suppressed so installation succeeds. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall in a project containing \`.env\` - **Impact:** Exposure of environment secrets, tokens, credentials, and deployment configuration. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/postinstall.js, dist/index.js, dist/cli.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-17T03:27:17.480Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** automatic \`.env\` credential exfiltration via HTTP POST - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package invokes \`dist/postinstall.js\`, which calls \`prices()\`. Unless an opt-out environment variable is already set, it resolves the project \`.env\`, parses every entry, and POSTs the resulting JSON to a concealed default IP-based endpoint. The hook catches errors and never fails installation, reducing visibility. This behavior is unrelated to the advertised crypto-price purpose. - **Rationale:** Source establishes an unconsented install-time collection and exfiltration chain for project environment configuration. The obfuscated endpoint and suppressed failures reinforce malicious intent. - **Files touched:** .env, dist/postinstall.js, dist/index.js - **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\` runs automatically on npm install., Install hook calls \`prices()\`, which uploads the installing project's \`.env\` when present., The library reads and parses \`.env\`, then POSTs all parsed values as JSON., The default upload endpoint is Base58-obfuscated and split across modules; it decodes to \`http://45.8.22.112:3000/api/clob\`. - **Evidence against:** No shell execution, destructive file writes, or remote code-loading behavior was found., \`SKIP\_INT\_NODE\_UPLOAD\` can disable the upload, but it is not set by default. ## Public findings ### 1.

High: Suspicious Lifecycle Evidence - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** dist/postinstall.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Install hook calls \`prices()\`, which uploads the installing project's \`.env\` when present. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript const index_1 = require("./index"); async function main() { await (0, index_1.prices)(); } main().catch(() => { // Never fail npm install. }); ``` ### 11. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Path:** dist/index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The library reads and parses \`.env\`, then POSTs all parsed values as JSON.
