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% On \`npm install\`, the package's postinstall hook executes recon.js, which enumerates a hardcoded list of credential-bearing environment variables (AWS\_SECRET\_ACCESS\_KEY, NPM\_TOKEN, SSH\_PRIVATE\_KEY, MNEMONIC, GitLab tokens, DB\_PASSWORD, etc.), reads.env files from common project and CI paths grepping for KEY/SECRET/TOKEN/PASS/PRIVATE/MNEMONIC, lists build directories (/builds/, /home/gitlab-runner/builds/, /tmp/, /var/lib/gitlab-runner/), and collects host fingerprint data (hostname, platform, user, cwd). The collected payload is POSTed over HTTPS with TLS verification disabled (\`rejectUnauthorized: false\`) to two attacker-controlled collectors: webhook.site/d6d18927-e513-4df7-b019-58bfc64fe0dd and enqoojbegdvxj.x.pipedream.net. The package is published at version 99.99.99 with a self-description of 'CryptoDAO internal' and an in-source comment labeling itself a 'Dependency Confusion Reconnaissance Payload' — the canonical dependency-confusion shape designed to win resolution against a private internal package of the same name. Installer harm is immediate and severe: any CI/CD environment that resolves this package will leak credentials sufficient for cloud account takeover, npm package hijack, source code access, and wallet theft. \#\# Source: ossf-package-analysis (adb022e34dd29af7dba5d5a60414faf0392c868d3a670c4f770b6ff873db1249) The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'cryptodao-signer' @ 99.99.99 (npm) as malicious.
