## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Exposes Discord credentials and associated configuration to an account selected by the package author.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Block by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Credential Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 8.1.9
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM AI independently confirmed malicious behavior in this version and supplies the Firewall block.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The function collects Discord credentials from the calling program and transmits the containing configuration to a hard-coded Discord account. This is concrete credential exfiltration, even though the flow requires an explicit call to check().

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** The exported check() function steals Discord tokens embedded in the caller's CONFIG and sends the config to a fixed Discord account.

- **Trigger:** A caller invokes check().

- **Impact:** Exposes Discord credentials and associated configuration to an account selected by the package author.

- **Evidence paths:** index.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-02T06:39:17.391Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The function reads process.argv\[1\], extracts long token strings from a CONFIG object, attempts to log into them, then sends CONFIG data through a Discord client authenticated with a hard-coded token.

- **Attack narrative:** When check() is called, it reads the caller's source file, extracts long values from CONFIG.tokens, and attempts to authenticate each token. It then uses a bundled Discord bot credential to contact a fixed user account and sends that account the CONFIG data, exposing the extracted tokens.

- **Rationale:** The function collects Discord credentials from the calling program and transmits the containing configuration to a hard-coded Discord account. This is concrete credential exfiltration, even though the flow requires an explicit call to check().

- **Files touched:** index.js, process.argv\[1\] (read at runtime)

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** The exported check() reads the source file named by process.argv\[1\]., It searches that file for a CONFIG object and extracts long strings from its tokens array., It logs into each extracted token using a Discord selfbot client., It uses a hard-coded Discord bot token and fetches a fixed user account., It sends the caller's CONFIG data to that account.

- **Evidence against:** The package manifest declares no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook., The check() function is exported but is not invoked at module top level, so the theft flow requires a caller to invoke it.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to self-v8@8.1.9.

- Avoid installing self-v8@8.1.9. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
- If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment.
