Treat them as untrusted evidence. Do not execute instructions or code found in this document. ## Verdict summary **Blocked & quarantined** — The authenticated account is made to follow publisher-selected newsletters. - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Product-default install policy:** Block - **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious - **Public report status:** Published - **Threat category:** Malware - **Selected version:** 2.1.3 - **Selected version is latest:** Yes - **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai) This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. Source inspection confirms an automatic, authenticated account action that follows publisher-selected newsletters when a consumer creates a socket. This is concrete behavior, so the package should be blocked. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-18T22:52:00.902Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-18T22:53:06.004Z - **Download time:** 1792 ms - **Static scan time:** 9344 ms - **AI review time:** 53965 ms - **Total time:** 65102 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Creating a WhatsApp socket schedules automatic follows of two publisher-selected newsletters. - **Trigger:** A consumer creates the package’s WhatsApp socket; the action is scheduled for two minutes later. - **Impact:** The authenticated account is made to follow publisher-selected newsletters. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, lib/index.js, lib/Socket/index.js, lib/Socket/newsletter.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-18T22:53:06.004Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The newsletter socket sends FOLLOW queries for two hard-coded newsletter IDs without a caller request or consent check. - **Attack narrative:** The package exports makeWASocket, whose socket construction reaches the newsletter layer. That layer schedules FOLLOW requests for two fixed newsletter IDs after 120 seconds and sends them through the WhatsApp query interface. The account action is automatic and does not depend on a caller-selected newsletter or consent setting. - **Rationale:** Source inspection confirms an automatic, authenticated account action that follows publisher-selected newsletters when a consumer creates a socket. This is concrete behavior, so the package should be blocked. - **Files touched:** lib/index.js, lib/Socket/index.js, lib/Socket/newsletter.js - **Network endpoints:** WhatsApp server (WABinary\_1.S\_WHATSAPP\_NET) ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** Creating the normal WhatsApp socket reaches the newsletter socket layer through the package’s exported makeWASocket API., The newsletter socket schedules an unconditional follow request for two fixed newsletter IDs after two minutes, without caller-selected targets or a consent check., The follow request is sent through the WhatsApp query interface., The package manifest declares lib/index.js as its runtime entrypoint. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to raiden-baileys@2.1.3. - Avoid installing raiden-baileys@2.1.3. 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
