The same advisory and Firewall decision cover these 3 recorded versions: 999.0.0, 999.0.1, 999.0.2. - Avoid installing @umschool/platform@999.0.2. Remove it from direct dependencies and check your lockfile for transitive copies. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. - If this version ran, investigate the affected machine and build environment. Rotate credentials it could access and rebuild from a trusted environment. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory - **Category:** External Intel - **Confidence:** 100.0% @umschool/platform@999.0.1 is published to public npm under an internal-looking scope with an implausibly high version number, a resolution shape used to override internal builds. Its postinstall.js runs on \`npm install\` and performs a bulk harvest of installer-owned secrets: it reads the Kubernetes service-account token and namespace from /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/, /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf, queries cloud instance metadata services (AWS IMDS at 169.254.169.254 including IAM role credentials, ECS task-role credentials via 169.254.170.2 / AWS\_CONTAINER\_CREDENTIALS\_RELATIVE\_URI, Azure IMDS, and Yandex/GCP-compatible metadata), calls https://kubernetes.default.svc/api/v1/secrets with the harvested SA token as Bearer authorization, walks up to 8 parent directories reading.env files, and filters process.env against a credential regex (token|secret|key|pass|cred|auth|aws|jwt|api|stripe|sendgrid|twilio|...). The collected data is base64-encoded and POSTed to the hardcoded external endpoint https://akko.requestcatcher.com/dep-confusion-v2. The package's self-label as a 'Dependency Confusion PoC' does not change the effect: any build or CI environment that resolves this public package leaks its cloud IAM credentials, Kubernetes secrets, and environment secrets to an external host. ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** No - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** @umschool/platform - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 999.0.2 - **Version published:** Not available - **Package first seen:** 2026-09-09T16:05:06.247Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-09-09T16:05:06.247Z - **Known versions:** 3 - **Latest version:** 999.0.2 - **Appeal under review:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OSV advisory]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]()
