Firewall keeps the version blocked under its trusted-intelligence policy. An AI recommendation to allow or warn does not override that advisory. OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-16234 confirms this npm version as malicious. postinstall.js runs automatically on npm install and collects host reconnaissance data — os.hostname(), os.platform(), os.arch(), os.type(), os.release(), the current username, and enumeration of all network interface addresses — then transmits them as query-string parameters in an HTTP GET to hardcoded host 8y70jt07jkewju8wh0o1cgkaw12sqje8.oastify.com on port 80 at path /osinfo. The oastify.com subdomain is a Burp... ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 100.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-16T14:45:05.635Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-16T14:45:05.907Z - **Download time:** 253 ms - **Static scan time:** 19 ms - **AI review time:** Not available - **Total time:** 272 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis.
