## Public findings

### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory
- **Category:** External Intel
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package published to the public npm registry under the @mexc scope without evidence of scope ownership. package.json declares a postinstall hook ("postinstall": "node postinstall.js") that runs on any installer whose resolver falls back to the public registry when resolving @mexc/shared-utils. The postinstall script collects host metadata — os.hostname(), os.userInfo().username, process.getuid(), process.cwd(), platform, node version, and multiple npm\_\* environment variables (npm\_config\_registry, npm\_config\_user\_agent, npm\_execpath, INIT\_CWD) — and writes the data to os.tmpdir()/mexc-poc-execution-proof.json. The current shipped script performs local write only with no outbound network call, but the install-time code-execution primitive against any CI/build system that resolves the @mexc scope publicly is the classic dependency-confusion pattern; the author controls the code that runs and can change the payload in any future version.
