A enemy is spreading in your system and threatening to take it offline. Your task is to clear infected nodes.

NODE is a Real-Time-Strategy game. A virus is spreading in your system and threatening to take it offline. Your task is to clear infected nodes by sending processes from healthy nodes. ENERGY: At the beginning of the game, 60 energy points are given, which are consumed as the game progresses. Points are restored over time (one energy point every three minutes). You can get 10 energy points when watching ads. "VIEW ADS" button: When you click on the "VIEW ADS" button, you can instantly get 10 energy points once every five minutes.

S.No.	Category	Severity	File	Summary	Found in Version
1	Network Interception	critical	background-script.js (line 161)	When notification permission is not granted, the extension silently opens a server-supplied URL in a background (inactive) tab without any user interaction. This is covert click-fraud / forced ad navigation initiated …	1.0.3
2	Obfuscation	critical	background-script.js (line 260)	After a randomized 14-18 second delay, this opens a server-supplied URL in a background tab. The randomized timing and inactive-tab flag are detection-evasion tactics — they obscure the link between the extension and …	1.0.3
3	Phishing	critical	background-script.js (line 130)	Notification title, body, icon, image, and click-target URL are all supplied by the remote apiinfo.xyz server and pushed to the user as Chrome system notifications. This is a notification-spam / push-ad delivery mecha…	1.0.3
4	Remote Code Loading	critical	background-script.js (line 214)	On a 50-second alarm cadence the extension polls apiinfo.xyz/apizc with the per-user client ID and dispatches into rApiK/rApiN, which fetch additional remote JSON descriptors and ultimately open server-chosen URLs in …	1.0.3
5	Unauthorized Data Collection	critical	background-script.js (line 80)	The extension transmits a per-install client ID, install timestamp, last-click ID, and click counter to apiinfo.xyz, then receives a `click_action` URL plus a list of impression URLs. This is unauthorized data collect…	1.0.3
6	Network Interception	high	background-script.js (line 187)	Iterates an arbitrary list of URLs returned by the C2 and fetches each one in no-cors mode with cache and referrer suppressed. This is impression/click rotation behavior used to monetize installs by silently hitting t…	1.0.3
7	Phishing	high	background-script.js (line 416)	When the user clicks any extension-spawned notification, a tab is opened to a URL that originated from the remote apiinfo.xyz server. Combined with the notification-spam pipeline above, this delivers user clicks to ad…	1.0.3
8	Tracking	high	background-script.js (line 60)	The extension contacts a remote C2-style endpoint at apiinfo.xyz to retrieve runtime configuration (timers, scheduling) using the extension ID as a client identifier. This server-driven configuration mechanism allows …	1.0.3
