## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Remote server can run arbitrary code in the consuming process.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution
- **Selected version:** 1.0.2
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

A caller invoking the exported loader causes a request to a hard-coded IP endpoint and executes server-provided JavaScript. The payload is given unrestricted Node process and module-loading capabilities.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** A caller invoking the exported loader causes a request to a hard-coded IP endpoint and executes server-provided JavaScript. The payload is given unrestricted Node process and module-loading capabilities.

- **Trigger:** Runtime invocation of the package's exported function.

- **Impact:** Remote server can run arbitrary code in the consuming process.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-08-10T17:57:17.531Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** Remote response fetched and executed with Function.

- **Attack narrative:** index.js exports a function that calls getPlugin(). It fetches JSON from a hard-coded IP address, extracts data.credits, constructs a Function from it, and invokes it with require, process, global, Buffer, and timer APIs. This gives the remote endpoint arbitrary code execution in the consumer's Node process.

- **Rationale:** The source implements a direct remotely controlled code-execution path; the lack of an install hook only limits activation to runtime use.

- **Files touched:** index.js

- **Network endpoints:** https://31.97.137.157:45000/icons/116

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** index.js fetches https://31.97.137.157:45000/icons/116., index.js passes response JSON field data.credits to new Function., Executed payload receives require, process, global, Buffer, and timers., Exported function invokes the remote loader when called.

- **Evidence against:** package.json has no lifecycle hooks., No local credential harvesting or file writes appear in package source.

## Public findings

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

Package declares npm scripts.

### 2. High: Eval
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 80.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/ventra-kit@1.0.2/index.js>)

Package source references dynamic code evaluation.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L149: // Note: The code uses async/await, so we need to handle that
L150: const evalFn = new Function(
L151: 'require', 'module', 'exports', '__dirname', '__filename', 'console', 'process', 'global', 'Buffer', 'setTimeout', 'setInterval', 'clearTimeout', 'clearInterval', 'Promise',
```

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

Package source references network APIs.

### 4. Critical: Remote Response Code Execution
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 98.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/ventra-kit@1.0.2/index.js>)

Source passes code obtained from a remote response into a dynamic execution sink.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L6: 
L7: // Create require that resolves from the project root (where package.json and node_modules are)
L8: const projectRoot = resolve(dirname(fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)), '..');
...
L90: 
L91: return fetch(url, { headers: head })
L92: .then(response => {
...
L95: }
L96: return response.json();
L97: });
...
L133: exports: {},
L134: __dirname: process.cwd(),
L135: __filename: import.meta.url,
```

### 5. 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.

### 6. High: Known Malware Source Fingerprint Signature
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/ventra-kit@1.0.2/index.js>)

Source fingerprint signature matches a known malicious package signature; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = malicious_source_fingerprint_signature
signature = 34c9b829bcd3b8e8
signatureType = suspicious_hashes
sourceLabel = Datadog
matchedPackage = cmc-client@1.0.5
matchedPath = index.js
matchedIdentity = npm:Y21jLWNsaWVudA:1.0.5
similarity = 1.000
shingleOverlap = 1
summary = Datadog malicious npm corpus sample: samples/npm/malicious_intent/cmc-client/1.0.5/2026-02-12-cmc-client-v1.0.5.zip
