## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** On npm installation, the package runs an external CLI to install randompkgb outside declared dependencies. The invoked executable and secondary package are not present in this package, so no payload is confirmed.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall

- **Impact:** May cause an untracked secondary package installation if rnpm is available.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-19T17:25:38.030Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** lifecycle invocation of an external package-install command

- **Rationale:** The lifecycle hook creates a real supply-chain risk through an external, undeclared install action, but source inspection does not establish a concrete malicious payload. Warn rather than block.

- **Files touched:** package.json

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Suspicious

- **Confidence:** 83.0%

- **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn

- **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability

- **False-positive risk:** Medium

- **Evidence for:** Install-time postinstall invokes \`rnpm i randompkgb\`, attempting an undeclared secondary installation.

- **Evidence against:** Package contains only package.json; declared main index.js is absent., No source evidence of network endpoints, credential access, file harvesting, shell payloads, or AI-agent configuration writes.
