Embedded executable is likely a legitimate pre-compiled binary for the build tool. Low confidence evidence and popular project suggest no malware.
No verification record available.
The evidence suggests a benign package. While Evidence 0 highlights an embedded executable, this is not inherently malicious. Many legitimate packages, especially those involving compilation or build tools (like esbuild), include pre-compiled binaries for different architectures. Evidence 1 shows a file extension mismatch, which is suspicious but not conclusive. The low confidence level of Evidence 1 and the lack of further evidence (e.g., malicious code detected by LLM analysis, suspicious network activity, attempts to modify system files) suggests that the embedded executable is likely a legitimate part of the esbuild tool. The project's popularity on GitHub (38498 stars, 1176 forks) further reduces the likelihood of malicious intent. Without more compelling evidence, classifying this as malware would be premature and a false positive.
