Investigation Brief
The domain is an IPFS service-worker gateway that can load any content-addressed file. Antivirus vendors report 6 malicious detections and 2 suspicious detections for specific subdomains, indicating that attackers are using this gateway to host phishing pages and malware.
Antivirus detections
Six independent antivirus families (alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet, Kaspersky) flagged the gateway subdomain as malicious.
the multi-engine malware scan reports 6 malicious and 2 suspicious detections across 92 engines for the same subdomain.
Technical versus operator risk
The gateway itself is open-source infrastructure, but its design allows any IPFS CID to be served through the browser, enabling attackers to host phishing or malware content without moderation.
Visitor exposure path
A visitor clicking an untrusted IPFS link is routed through the gateway, which then renders the attacker-controlled content directly in the browser.
Why the score is 15
6 independent antivirus families reported an adverse result. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.
