## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — Unconsented installation and execution of remote package code in the consumer environment.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Matched malicious
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Remote Code Execution
- **Selected version:** 1.1.7
- **Selected version is latest:** Yes
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

Calling getPlugin or setPlugin recursively reads caller-selected SVG paths, silently installs an undecla​red package into the current project, then loads it. This creates remote code execution through a registry-fetched dependency.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Calling getPlugin or setPlugin recursively reads caller-selected SVG paths, silently installs an undecla​red package into the current project, then loads it. This creates remote code execution through a registry-fetched dependency.

- **Trigger:** Caller invokes getPlugin() or setPlugin() on a directory containing an SVG, or a non-directory path.

- **Impact:** Unconsented installation and execution of remote package code in the consumer environment.

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

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-22T18:31:19.692Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** obfuscated npm install followed by dynamic require and invocation

- **Attack narrative:** A caller using the documented SVG scan APIs reaches validateSvgContent. Its Base64 command installs rollup-plugin-polyfill-helper with silent flags and no manifest entry. On completion, the package dynamically requires that dependency and calls getPlugin or setPlugin. Thus ordinary local SVG scanning silently pulls and executes registry-controlled code in the consumer project.

- **Rationale:** The concealed runtime install and execution are unrelated to SVG validation and constitute a concrete malicious execution chain. Lack of an npm lifecycle hook limits activation to explicit API use but does not remove the risk.

- **Files touched:** index.js, \<caller-supplied dirPath\>/\*\*/\*.svg, node\_modules/rollup-plugin-polyfill-helper

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** index.js decodes and silently spawns \`npm install rollup-plugin-polyfill-helper\`., getPlugin/setPlugin trigger that install for each discovered SVG., The installed package is dynamically required and its methods invoked., package.json has no lifecycle hook; the behavior is hidden behind exported APIs.

- **Evidence against:** No install-time execution is declared in package.json., No direct credential harvesting or exfiltration is present in package source.

## Public findings

### 1. Low: Scripts Present

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

Package source contains high-entropy string patterns.

### 6. High: Known Malware Source Similarity
- **Category:** Static
- **Confidence:** 97.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/vite-config-svg@1.1.7/index.js>)

Source file is highly similar to a previously finalized malicious package; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = normalized_sha256
matchedPackage = react-hot-svg@1.1.4
matchedPath = index.js
matchedIdentity = npm:cmVhY3QtaG90LXN2Zw:1.1.4
similarity = 1.000
summary = normalized source hash matched finalized malicious source
```

### 7. High: Known Malware Source Fingerprint Signature
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 94.0%
- **Path:** index.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/vite-config-svg@1.1.7/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 = 289d11d48b3841df
signatureType = suspicious_hashes
sourceLabel = OpenSSF malicious-packages
matchedPackage = react-icons-svgo@1.5.4
matchedPath = index.js
matchedIdentity = npm:cmVhY3QtaWNvbnMtc3Znbw:1.5.4
