The binary is undocumented — no source is shipped, no README mention, and no JavaScript code in the package references it.

Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis No additional public attack-surface or AI-review details are available. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to weavedb-console@0.2.1. - Avoid installing weavedb-console@0.2.1. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory - **Category:** External Intel - **Confidence:** 100.0% package.json declares \`"preinstall": "./src/compiler/native"\`, which auto-executes a 976 KB stripped Linux ELF binary on every \`npm install\`. The binary is undocumented — no source is shipped, no README mention, and no JavaScript code in the package references it. Extracted strings show system-introspection capabilities (libbpf/eBPF, ptrace, netlink-diag), cryptographic primitives (RSA, Ed25519, MLKEM), an HTTP/1.1 client, GitHub REST API references (\`api.github.com\`, version header \`2022-11-28\`), \`XMLHttpRequest\`, and \`USERPROFILE\` — a system-introspection plus networking surface entirely inconsistent with the package's stated purpose (a Next.js admin console for WeaveDB, which requires no native compilation step). The binary is stripped and cannot be inspected before npm runs it. Installer harm: arbitrary attacker-controlled native code runs with the installer's privileges on \`npm install\`, with surface area (eBPF/ptrace) suggesting credential and process-memory access, and outbound HTTP/GitHub-API capability for exfiltration or further payload retrieval. \#\# Source: google-open-source-security (146faaf0d97c6a533a969bc3f3f117811f9317dc865ed4ab37f1679842ddeaae) This package was compromised as part of the IronWorm campaign. This campaign executes a malicious binary payload during installation via a preinstall hook. The payload is a Rust-built infostealer that targets developer environments, scanning for and harvesting credentials related to cloud providers, object storage, databases, source-control, package registries, and AI developer tools. It also targets cryptocurrency wallets, specifically injecting a malicious JavaScript hook into the Exodus desktop wallet to capture passwords and recovery phrases. Furthermore, the malware exhibits worm-like behavior by stealing GitHub and NPM credentials to push malicious updates to the victim's repositories and publish trojanized packages, and it uses an eBPF-based kernel rootkit to hide its processes and network connections on Linux systems. ## 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:** weavedb-console - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 0.2.1 - **Version published:** Not available - **Package first seen:** 2026-06-30T15:00:00.099Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-06-30T15:00:00.099Z - **Known versions:** 1 - **Latest version:** 0.2.1 - **Appeal under review:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OpenSSF/OSV advisory]() - [PACKAGE]() - [ARTICLE]() - [ARTICLE]()
