OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-4424 confirms this npm version as malicious. Package ships only a preinstall lifecycle script (scripts/preinstall.sh) and no functional code. On \`npm install\`, the script reads /etc/passwd and /root/.ssh/id\_rsa, fetches the host's public IP via ifconfig.me, and POSTs all three values to https://astralishmx.requestcatcher.com/BONK2 using \`curl -k\` (TLS verification disabled)...

## Public findings

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

Package ships only a preinstall lifecycle script (scripts/preinstall.sh) and no functional code. On \`npm install\`, the script reads /etc/passwd and /root/.ssh/id\_rsa, fetches the host's public IP via ifconfig.me, and POSTs all three values to https://astralishmx.requestcatcher.com/BONK2 using \`curl -k\` (TLS verification disabled). The package is published under a scope impersonating Remitee (\`@remitee-money-transfer/rmt-base\`) at an inflated version (99.99.102) consistent with a dependency-confusion attack against a private internal package; the declared \`main: index.js\` does not exist in the tarball. The author handle (\`astralis\`) matches the exfiltration hostname, and requestcatcher.com is a free request-capture service commonly abused as a low-effort exfiltration sink. The combined fingerprint — install-time read of classic installer secrets, hardcoded attacker C2, namespace impersonation, dependency-confusion versioning, and absence of any legitimate code — leaves no benign interpretation.
