chai-as-attested

Package impersonates a pino-style logger (exports `module.exports.pino`, ships pino-like `DEFAULT_LEVELS`, keywords `fast/logger/stream/json`) but the exported middleware spawns a detached `node lib/initializeCaller.js` that fetches a JSON document from a hardcoded free file-hosting URL (https://amethyst-lorrin-26.tiiny.site/index.json) and executes the `cookie` field of the response via `new Function.constructor('require', response)(require)`, granting the remote payload full Node `require` access. The endpoint URL and request headers are base64-encoded inside fake `process.env`-named constants and decoded at runtime with `atob` to evade scanners; the fetch is retried 5 times. Any consumer who imports the package and invokes the middleware (or runs the package's smoke script) executes attacker-controlled code on the host. The package name and pino-mimicking API surface are a lure — `chai-as-attested` has no relation to chai-as-promised or to pino. ## Source: ghsa-malware (bb6756ece7eb10964628eea76db45ccc30a5d6b3fc01cccaafa48bce6c65d6ac) Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
