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. npm lifecycle hooks exfiltrate the consumer's current installation directory and host name to Discord. This occurs without a user command beyond installing the package. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 99.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-15T20:09:20.122Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-15T20:09:53.430Z - **Download time:** 509 ms - **Static scan time:** 7 ms - **AI review time:** 32791 ms - **Total time:** 33308 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:** npm lifecycle hooks exfiltrate the consumer's current installation directory and host name to Discord. This occurs without a user command beyond installing the package. - **Trigger:** npm installation, through preinstall and postinstall hooks - **Impact:** Leaks consumer environment information to a third party during installation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-15T20:09:53.430Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** wget posts host-identifying values to a Discord webhook - **Attack narrative:** Installing the package invokes preinstall, which expands pwd and posts the resulting installation directory to Discord. Postinstall expands hostname and posts that host identifier to the same webhook. The package snapshot has no implementation that would require these network disclosures. - **Rationale:** Automatic install hooks transmit consumer environment identifiers to an unrelated external endpoint. This is concrete unsolicited data exfiltration, so the package should be blocked. - **Files touched:** package.json - **Network endpoints:** discord.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 99.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for block:** The preinstall hook sends the install directory to a Discord webhook., The postinstall hook sends the host name to the same external webhook., Both actions run automatically during npm installation and have no package functionality. - **Evidence against:** The snapshot contains no other source files or runtime implementation. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to tol8t@14.0.0. - Avoid installing tol8t@14.0.0. 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.
