AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The postinstall hook loads code that initiates network activity, accepts file paths from a response, reads those files, and sends their contents to a fixed external address. This is concrete install-triggered data exfiltration behavior. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-28T10:51:57.837Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-28T10:52:24.631Z - **Download time:** 520 ms - **Static scan time:** 16 ms - **AI review time:** 26257 ms - **Total time:** 26794 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** The install hook loads code that contacts a fixed external address and can transmit local file contents selected by the remote response. - **Trigger:** Package installation runs the postinstall command, which requires the entrypoint; importing the entrypoint starts the requests. - **Impact:** Local file data may be disclosed to the external endpoint. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T10:52:24.631Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The response provides file paths to read, and the resulting content is sent in HTTP PUT requests to the configured destinations. - **Attack narrative:** During postinstall, the package requires its entrypoint, which immediately contacts a loopback service and a fixed external IP. A response can specify up to ten local file paths; the package reads their contents and sends a portion of the combined data to both destinations. This is an install-triggered file disclosure path. - **Rationale:** The postinstall hook loads code that initiates network activity, accepts file paths from a response, reads those files, and sends their contents to a fixed external address. This is concrete install-triggered data exfiltration behavior. - **Files touched:** package.json, index.js - **Network endpoints:** http://127.0.0.1:3000, http://154.57.164.64:30664 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The postinstall command requires the package entrypoint, which starts network requests as a module-load side effect., The entrypoint contacts a loopback service and a fixed external IP address., A response supplies up to ten file paths; the package reads those files and places up to 400 characters of their contents into a request body., The package sends that body with HTTP PUT requests to both configured destinations. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to spectral-net-probe@1.0.10. - Avoid installing spectral-net-probe@1.0.10. 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. ## Public findings ### 1.
