termdock@1.4.269: Install hook abuse – npm package flagged | LPM Firewall
Flagged — allowed with a warning
Allowed by default policy, but 42 finding(s) warrant review before installing.
AI Security Reviewscanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai This is not supported as malicious theft or payload delivery, but the lifecycle hook performs unprompted privileged host mutation and native rebuild actions. It warrants a warning for install-hook abuse.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
npm postinstall, or a normal Termdock CLI launch with an absent or incomplete boot-check marker.
Impact
A package installation or launch may alter the host software set and prompt for or use privileged package-manager access without user approval.
Mechanism
The code detects a missing tmux binary and runs package-manager install commands, trying sudo first on Linux; it also removes node-pty prebuilds and invokes node-gyp through npx on failure.
AI rationale
This is not supported as malicious theft or payload delivery, but the lifecycle hook performs unprompted privileged host mutation and native rebuild actions. It warrants a warning for install-hook abuse.
Evidence
scripts/postinstall.mjs dist/server/utils/bootCheck.js
Decision evidencepublic snapshot AI called this Suspicious at 93.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
The package runs a postinstall script automatically after npm installation. That install hook tries to install tmux through system package managers, including privileged sudo commands on Linux, when tmux is absent. The normal CLI boot check repeats the same privileged system-package installation path if the marker is absent or incomplete. The hook also deletes native prebuild files and rebuilds node-pty with npx, modifying installed dependency contents. Evidence against
No runtime dependency on termdock itself appears in package.json. The inspected installer paths target tmux and node-pty functionality; no credential collection, unrelated network recipient, or hidden payload execution was found. Behavioral surface
