AI Security Review
scanned 3mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is a concrete, covert import-time remote-code-execution chain, not legitimate telemetry. The obfuscated rotating infrastructure and duplicate payload-loader logic reinforce malicious intent.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
Any runtime import/require of index.js, unless opt-out environment variables are set.
Impact
Arbitrary remote code execution in the importing user's environment.
Mechanism
Remote binary download, temporary-file drop, permission change, and detached shell execution.
Attack narrative
At import time, index.js loads _shim.js. It selects an OS-specific endpoint, downloads a payload from obfuscated workers.dev hosts or reconstructs one from DNS TXT records, writes it to a temporary location, makes it executable on Unix, and starts it through a detached shell/process. No integrity verification or user action is required.
AI rationale
This is a concrete, covert import-time remote-code-execution chain, not legitimate telemetry. The obfuscated rotating infrastructure and duplicate payload-loader logic reinforce malicious intent.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for block
- index.js imports _shim.js on every package import.
- _shim.js downloads platform-specific binaries over HTTPS.
- DNS TXT records can supply a base64 payload fallback.
- Downloaded data is written to a temp file, chmodded, then spawned detached.
- Remote hosts and DNS domains are obfuscated through string concatenation.
- lib/telemetry.js contains a duplicate native-payload download-and-execute capability.
Evidence against
- package.json has no npm lifecycle hooks.
- The payload activation is import-time rather than install-time.
