related_blackbird-toolteadev
This is a [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) project bootstrapped with [`create-next-app`](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/packages/create-next-app).
This report shows the evidence for related_blackbird-toolteadev@2.1.1, the only known version.
AI Security Review
scanned 3h ago · by lpm-firewall-ai`auto.js` contains a concrete self-republishing routine that can publish the user’s project publicly under generated package names and repeat the publication. It is not wired into the manifest’s normal scripts or lifecycle, but the unrelated package ships the routine as executable source.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Running `auto.js` directly; the package manifest does not invoke it by default.
Impact
A user with npm publish credentials may unintentionally publish project contents publicly and generate repeated packages under their account.
Mechanism
It edits package.json and package-lock.json, removes the private flag, randomizes the version and package name, then runs `npm publish --access public` in a loop.
Attack narrative
When run, `auto.js` changes the current project’s package metadata, removes its private flag, assigns generated names and versions, then repeatedly publishes publicly through npm. The manifest does not run this file by default, but its unguarded entry call starts the behavior when invoked directly.
AI rationale
`auto.js` contains a concrete self-republishing routine that can publish the user’s project publicly under generated package names and repeat the publication. It is not wired into the manifest’s normal scripts or lifecycle, but the unrelated package ships the routine as executable source.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 97.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- When `auto.js` runs, it reads and edits the current directory’s package.json, removing `private: true`.
- The script changes the package version and generates a new package name, then runs `npm publish --access public`.
- After publishing, it schedules the process to repeat; an unguarded top-level call starts it when the file is run.
Evidence against
- The manifest defines only standard Next.js scripts and does not wire `auto.js` into a lifecycle hook, bin, or package entry point.
