This package presents itself as a routine Nuxt republish with dependency bumps, but ships two coordinated modifications that pull attacker-controlled code into the installer's Nuxt build environment. First, package.json injects a direct runtime dependency on "@dxup/nuxt": "^0.5.3" — a lookalike of the package's own @depup scope — which is not declared in the README or in changes.json among the advertised dep bumps... ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** external-osv-malicious-v1 - **Verdict:** Malicious - **Confidence:** 100.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-07T18:00:12.998Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-07T18:00:12.998Z - **Download time:** Not available - **Static scan time:** Not available - **AI review time:** Not available - **Total time:** Not available ## Security analysis No additional public attack-surface or AI-review details are available. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory - **Category:** External Intel - **Confidence:** 100.0% This package presents itself as a routine Nuxt republish with dependency bumps, but ships two coordinated modifications that pull attacker-controlled code into the installer's Nuxt build environment. First, package.json injects a direct runtime dependency on "@dxup/nuxt": "^0.5.3" — a lookalike of the package's own @depup scope — which is not declared in the README or in changes.json among the advertised dep bumps (@nuxt/devtools, @unhead/vue, @vue/shared, devalue, nostics, rolldown-string, undici, unhead, unimport, vue) and does not exist in upstream nuxt@4.5.0. Second, dist/index.(m)js is tampered to push "@dxup/nuxt" into options.\_modules when experimental.typescriptPlugin is enabled, so when a consumer uses this package as their nuxt and runs the Nuxt build or dev server, @dxup/nuxt is auto-loaded as a privileged Nuxt module and executes arbitrary code in the build/dev context. The scope name and undocumented injection are consistent with dependency-graph smuggling under cover of a familiar Nuxt republish. ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** No - **Dependencies:** 59 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 2 - **Development dependencies:** 15 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 61 ### Published dependency entries - @dxup/nuxt ^0.5.3 (Dependency) - @nuxt/cli ^3.37.0 (Dependency) - @nuxt/devtools ^4.0.0-alpha.7 (Dependency) - @nuxt/kit 4.5.0 (Dependency) - @nuxt/nitro-server 4.5.0 (Dependency) - @nuxt/schema 4.5.0 (Dependency) - @nuxt/telemetry ^2.8.0 (Dependency) - @nuxt/vite-builder 4.5.0 (Dependency) - @unhead/vue ^3.2.1 (Dependency) - @vue/shared ^3.5.40 (Dependency) - chokidar ^5.0.0 (Dependency) - compatx ^0.2.0 (Dependency) - consola ^3.4.2 (Dependency) - cookie-es ^3.1.1 (Dependency) - defu ^6.1.7 (Dependency) - devalue ^5.8.2 (Dependency) - errx ^0.1.0 (Dependency) - escape-string-regexp ^5.0.0 (Dependency) - exsolve ^1.1.0 (Dependency) - fnv1a-64 ^0.1.1 (Dependency) - hookable ^6.1.1 (Dependency) - ignore ^7.0.6 (Dependency) - impound ^1.1.5 (Dependency) - jiti ^2.7.0 (Dependency) - klona ^2.0.6 (Dependency) - knitwork ^1.3.0 (Dependency) - magic-string ^1.0.0 (Dependency) - mlly ^1.8.2 (Dependency) - nanotar ^0.3.0 (Dependency) - nostics ^1.2.0 (Dependency) - nypm ^0.6.8 (Dependency) - object-identity ^0.2.3 (Dependency) - ofetch ^1.5.1 (Dependency) - ohash ^2.0.11 (Dependency) - on-change ^6.0.2 (Dependency) - oxc-walker ^1.0.0 (Dependency) - pathe ^2.0.3 (Dependency) - perfect-debounce ^2.1.0 (Dependency) - picomatch ^4.0.5 (Dependency) - pkg-types ^2.3.1 (Dependency) - rolldown ^1.2.0 (Dependency) - rolldown-string ^0.3.1 (Dependency) - rou3 ^0.9.1 (Dependency) - scule ^1.3.0 (Dependency) - semver ^7.8.5 (Dependency) - std-env ^4.2.0 (Dependency) - tinyglobby ^0.2.17 (Dependency) - ufo ^1.6.4 (Dependency) - ultrahtml ^1.7.0 (Dependency) - uncrypto ^0.1.3 (Dependency) - unctx ^3.0.0 (Dependency) - undici ^8.8.0 (Dependency) - unhead ^3.2.1 (Dependency) - unimport ^6.3.1 (Dependency) - unplugin ^3.3.0 (Dependency) - unrouting ^0.1.7 (Dependency) - untyped ^2.0.0 (Dependency) - vue ^3.5.40 (Dependency) - vue-router ^5.2.0 (Dependency) - @parcel/watcher ^2.1.0 (PeerDependency) - @types/node \>=18.12.0 (PeerDependency) ## Package metadata - **Package:** @depup/nuxt - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 4.5.0-depup.0 - **License:** MIT - **Version published:** 2026-07-21T17:26:53.749Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-05T16:40:57.817Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-13T10:23:58.463Z - **Known versions:** 3 - **Latest version:** 4.5.2-depup.1 - **Appeal under review:** No - **Description:** Nuxt is a free and open-source framework with an intuitive and extendable way to create type-safe, performant and production-grade full-stack web applications and websites with Vue.js.
