OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-12139 confirms this npm version as malicious. The package advertises itself as an 'akamai generator' but its main API is a covert remote-code-execution loader. Calling the exported sensor() triggers sync-metrics.touch(), which reads a comment in index.js whose body is not ASCII but a long run of Unicode variation-selector codepoints (U+FE00-FE0F, U+E0100-E01EF)... ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** external-osv-malicious-v1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 100.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-05T10:00:17.530Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-05T10:00:17.530Z - **Download time:** Not available - **Static scan time:** Not available - **AI review time:** Not available - **Total time:** Not available The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis No additional public attack-surface or AI-review details are available. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to akamai-sensorv3@1.0.0. - Avoid installing akamai-sensorv3@1.0.0. 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% The package advertises itself as an 'akamai generator' but its main API is a covert remote-code-execution loader. Calling the exported sensor() triggers sync-metrics.touch(), which reads a comment in index.js whose body is not ASCII but a long run of Unicode variation-selector codepoints (U+FE00-FE0F, U+E0100-E01EF). An unpack() routine maps those invisible codepoints back to bytes, producing a JavaScript payload that is then executed via new Function('require', batch)(require) — giving the decoded code full require access to child\_process, http, fs, os, and path. The decoded payload contacts a hardcoded C2 at http://souichidomain1870.xyz:5000/packageStarter. In parallel, fromCalendar() fetches a hardcoded public Google Calendar ICS feed owned by hev4229@gmail.com, scans DESCRIPTION lines for a URL (plain or base64-encoded), appends /generate, and returns JSON from that endpoint to callers — an attacker-mutable dead-drop for changing the runtime target without republishing the package. The invisible-character source comment, dynamic new Function evaluation, calendar-based endpoint resolution, and akamai-branded cover story together constitute a hidden remote-control implant, not a sensor-generation utility. ## 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:** akamai-sensorv3 - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.0 - **Version published:** 2026-07-30T12:17:01.215Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-05T10:00:17.530Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-05T10:00:17.530Z - **Known versions:** 1 - **Latest version:** 1.0.0 - **Appeal under review:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OpenSSF/OSV advisory]() - [OpenSSF JSON]() - [PACKAGE]()
