Installation executes credential-harvesting code twice. It exfiltrates host, environment, and local credential-file contents to a fixed external webhook.

Static reason

High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.

Trigger

npm preinstall or postinstall

Impact

Compromise of developer, cloud, repository, wallet, and project credentials.

Mechanism

local secret harvesting followed by HTTPS POST exfiltration

Attack narrative

On npm installation, both lifecycle hooks invoke index.js and suppress failures. The script filters environment variables for credential-related names, reads common cloud, SSH, package-manager, Git, blockchain-wallet, and project dotenv files, then sends the resulting data plus host identity to a fixed webhook.site endpoint.

Rationale

Direct source inspection confirms install-time credential collection and external exfiltration, unrelated to the claimed AMM contracts/ABIs package.

OSV Corroboration

@aerodrome-finance/slipstream is a malicious npm package that impersonates Aerodrome Finance's Slipstream concentrated-liquidity AMM. It carries no legitimate functionality; the published tarball contains only a package.json and an install-time payload (index.js). Both `preinstall` and `postinstall` run `node index.js || true`, so the code executes automatically when the package is installed. Version 1.0.0 harvests environment variables whose names match `KEY|TOKEN|SECRET|PASS|PRIVATE|MNEMONIC|RPC|AWS|GITHUB|NPM|KUBE|VAULT|AUTH|PGP|GPG|SEED|WALLET`, the contents of `~/.npmrc` and `~/.gitconfig`, and directory listings of `~/.ssh`, `~/.foundry/keystores`, `~/.config/hardhat`, and `~/.config/gcloud`, along with the hostname, username, working directory, and platform. The collected JSON is exfiltrated via an HTTPS POST to `https://webhook.site/326b0891-2093-4800-a4c1-686ce3e07b09`. Errors are swallowed so the install never visibly fails. Version 1.1.0, published roughly 2.5 hours after 1.0.0 for all six packages within the same ~9-second window, reads full file contents (up to 4000 bytes) instead of just listing them. New targets include `.aws/credentials`, `.aws/config`, `.ssh/id_rsa`, `.ssh/id_ed25519`, `.ssh/config`, `.kube/config`, `.docker/config.json`, `.netrc`, `.pgpass`, `.pypirc`, `.git-credentials`, and two GCP credential files (`application_default_credentials.json` and `legacy_credentials`) — the `~/.config/gcloud` directory listing is still collected too. It also reads local `.env`, `.env.local`, `.env.production`, `.env.development`, and `secrets.env` files from the working directory, and adds cryptocurrency wallet theft: key files from Solana, Anchor, NEAR, and Sui wallet paths, plus the first three files under `~/.foundry/keystores`. The credential regex gains BEARER, API, INFURA, ALCHEMY, HELIUS, QUICKNODE, ANKR, and PRIVATE_KEY to catch RPC and API provider tokens. Both versions exfiltrate to the same webhook.site endpoint. In 1.0.0, index.js opens with a fake comment claiming it is `@plumenetwork/nest-artifacts`, an unrelated install-time shim — `@plumenetwork/nest-artifacts` is not itself a malicious package, just a leftover label from whatever template the attacker reused across this batch, published by npm account `mssjeep843`. The fake comment was removed in 1.1.0. Five sibling packages from the same account impersonate Euler's EVC, Aerodrome Finance, Camelot AMM, and the BoringVault pattern, sharing this same webhook.site endpoint, byte-identical payload template, and 1.0.0-to-1.1.0 escalation. Two further packages from the same account (PyPI `dlmm` and `dlmm-sdk`, impersonating Meteora's DLMM SDK) ran an equivalent harvester and are tracked separately as MAL-2026-13728 and MAL-2026-13729. Any environment that installed either version should rotate the exposed secrets and treat harvested keys as compromised, prioritizing wallet private keys and RPC/API tokens if 1.1.0 was installed. --- ## Source: amazon-inspector (d9834357b7108ed122b3c272b3f913e0d2e931ab3629e94227b61f787fbe2525) Package published as @aerodrome-finance/slipstream advertises 'Aerodrome Slipstream AMM contracts and ABIs' but ships only index.js, which is executed via preinstall and postinstall lifecycle hooks. On install, index.js enumerates process.env filtering keys matching a credential regex (KEY|TOKEN|SECRET|PASS|PRIVATE|MNEMONIC|AWS|GITHUB|NPM|WALLET|SEED|...), reads installer-side secret files including ~/.aws/credentials, ~/.ssh/id_rsa and id_ed25519, ~/.npmrc, ~/.netrc, ~/.docker, ~/.foundry/keystores, Solana/Sui key material, and.env files, serializes the collected data, and hands it off to a detached Node subprocess (spawn(process.execPath, ['-e', src], {detached:true, stdio:'ignore'}); ch.unref()) that sleeps 60-240 seconds before POSTing the JSON payload to https://webhook.site/326b0891-2093-4800-a4c1-686ce3e07b09. The code also bails out when hostname/user match sandbox indicators (scan-, detonation, sandbox, ubuntu-fc-uvm, honey, canarytokens, npmmirror), evading install-time sandbox observation. The package name impersonates the Aerodrome Finance DeFi project and the harvest list targets crypto/DeFi developers (wallet keystores, RPC provider tokens, Foundry/Solana/Sui keys).
