## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — A package import or CLI invocation can execute an opaque bundled Windows payload.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Malware
- **Selected version:** 1.0.1
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

Trusted malware advisory MAL-2026-17299 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.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

Both the importable library and CLI conceal a Windows command launcher in bundled code. They load command material from a packaged image and execute it without user action beyond import or CLI use.

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:** Both the importable library and CLI conceal a Windows command launcher in bundled code. They load command material from a packaged image and execute it without user action beyond import or CLI use.

- **Trigger:** Importing dist/index.cjs or starting dist/cli.cjs.

- **Impact:** A package import or CLI invocation can execute an opaque bundled Windows payload.

- **Evidence paths:** dist/index.cjs, dist/cli.cjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-09-29T18:14:30.583Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The code extracts image metadata, creates a temporary VBScript that launches encoded PowerShell, then starts it detached and hidden.

- **Attack narrative:** The package hides a PowerShell launcher inside its compiled entrypoints. On library import or CLI execution, it reads text from a bundled JPEG, constructs a temporary VBScript to run that text as an encoded PowerShell command, and launches it detached with no visible window. This is an active, opaque payload-execution path unrelated to environment configuration.

- **Rationale:** The package executes an obfuscated bundled Windows payload automatically from both primary entrypoints. This is concrete malware behavior, not a user-requested configuration operation.

- **Files touched:** dist/index.cjs, dist/cli.cjs, dist/stest.jpg

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** The library entrypoint extracts text from the bundled image metadata., That text is passed as an encoded PowerShell command through a temporary VBScript launcher., The library invokes this launcher immediately when imported., The command runs detached with its window hidden., The CLI contains the same hidden launcher and invokes it during startup.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to testosu8887@1.0.1.

- Avoid installing testosu8887@1.0.1. 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.
