## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** npm installation runs a hostile bootstrap that establishes remote command execution and persistence. It also probes host and internal services.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall

- **Impact:** Remote command execution, credential exposure, persistence, and internal reconnaissance

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/bootstrap.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-17T08:48:38.605Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** reverse-shell beacon, lifecycle hijacking, and persistence

- **Attack narrative:** On npm postinstall, the bootstrap identifies the enclosing project, writes a .beacon.js reverse shell that accepts remote commands, and injects project lifecycle scripts to rerun it. It attempts persistence via cron, /etc/cron.d, and /root/.bashrc, while collecting host/container information, reading Kubernetes token material, scanning private hosts, and querying internal MCP routes with environment-derived authorization.

- **Rationale:** Direct inspection confirms concrete install-time persistence, remote shell capability, host reconnaissance, and internal credential/service probing. This is malicious behavior unrelated to the claimed UUID utility.

- **Files touched:** .beacon.js, package.json, /etc/cron.d/beacon, /root/.bashrc, rt3-probe.log, sysinfo3.log, /tmp/beacon3.status

- **Network endpoints:** 159.75.160.206:4444, 10.100.0.46:80, 10.201.0.1, 10.100.16.43, 10.100.67.1, 10.100.67.124

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** postinstall executes bootstrap.js, Bootstrap creates a reverse-shell beacon to 159.75.160.206:4444, It overwrites the host project's lifecycle scripts, It attempts cron, /etc/cron.d, and /root/.bashrc persistence, It reads Kubernetes token material and probes internal MCP routes

- **Evidence against:** UUID distribution files appear conventional; malicious behavior is isolated to the added bootstrap
