Trusted malware advisory MAL-2026-17297 identifies this version as malicious. 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-2026-17297 confirms this npm version as malicious. The tarball contains only package.json and 4444.vbs; the declared main entry (index.js) is absent. package.json defines a postinstall script \`wscript.exe 4444.vbs\`, so on \`npm install\` on Windows the VBScript executes automatically. 4444.vbs is heavily obfuscated (colon-delimited XOR-encoded CreateObject strings, embedded AES S-box and ChaCha20-IETF routines, and 600+ base64 fragments reconstructed at runtime) and...

## Public findings

### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory
- **Category:** External Intel
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

The tarball contains only package.json and 4444.vbs; the declared main entry (index.js) is absent. package.json defines a postinstall script \`wscript.exe 4444.vbs\`, so on \`npm install\` on Windows the VBScript executes automatically. 4444.vbs is heavily obfuscated (colon-delimited XOR-encoded CreateObject strings, embedded AES S-box and ChaCha20-IETF routines, and 600+ base64 fragments reconstructed at runtime) and presents cover strings identifying itself as \`Device Telemetry Aggregator / Verdant Signals Corp.\`. It reconstructs an encrypted payload, writes it to %TEMP% as a \`pf\*.dat\` file, and invokes powershell.exe to perform process hollowing of the decoded loader. The package ships no library code — its only reachable behavior is the install-time dropper.
