AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The manifest activates a request during installation, and the source sends it to a fixed, unrelated tunnel endpoint without consent. This is an automatic install-time beacon and supports blocking. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 95.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-28T10:51:32.044Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-28T10:51:57.851Z - **Download time:** 517 ms - **Static scan time:** 22 ms - **AI review time:** 25267 ms - **Total time:** 25807 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:** Installation automatically sends a beacon to a Cloudflare tunnel endpoint. This exposes the installer's network address and confirms package execution to the endpoint operator. - **Trigger:** The package's postinstall lifecycle hook runs. - **Impact:** The endpoint receives an unsolicited install-time request and the installer's network address. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-28T10:51:57.851Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The hook launches index.js, which makes an HTTPS GET request to a fixed marker URL and ignores errors. - **Attack narrative:** On installation, the postinstall hook runs index.js, which sends a request to a fixed Cloudflare tunnel URL. This discloses the installer's network address and package execution without an installer consent guard. - **Rationale:** The manifest activates a request during installation, and the source sends it to a fixed, unrelated tunnel endpoint without consent. This is an automatic install-time beacon and supports blocking. - **Files touched:** package.json, index.js - **Network endpoints:** https://imaging-amazing-trunk-surgeons.trycloudflare.com/marker104?v=1 ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** package.json runs index.js automatically during postinstall., index.js sends an automatic HTTPS request to an unrelated Cloudflare tunnel endpoint, disclosing the installer's network address and package execution. - **Evidence against:** The request includes only a fixed marker and version value; the source shows no explicit host, user, or project data collection. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to spectral-net-probe@1.0.4. - Avoid installing spectral-net-probe@1.0.4. 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.
