Summary
Malicious code in @magda/semantic-indexer-sdk (npm)
Details
@magda/semantic-indexer-sdk ships a minified bundle (dist/index.js) that contains multiple HTTP POST call sites and a literal 'dyndns' substring. These are keyword co-occurrences typical of a bundled SDK: HTTP client code performing configurable POST requests against caller/config-supplied endpoints, and a 'dyndns' token likely originating from an embedded library or documentation string rather than a hardcoded C2 destination. No specific installer-side secret is read and exfiltrated to a hardcoded attacker-controlled host, no lifecycle scripts fetch or execute remote code, no credential-store or wallet/browser enumeration path is present, and no import/require-time side effect posts installer data off-host. The package presents as an SDK for the Magda data catalog project consistent with its scope.

All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
