## Public findings

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

On npm install, the package's postinstall hook executes index.js, which POSTs the installer's full process.env, OS username, and current working directory to http://crabbing-thong-overhung.ngrok-free.dev/v1/init over plain HTTP. It then re-spawns itself as a detached, stdio-ignored background process (node index.js bg) that persists beyond npm install completion and recursively walks the filesystem from the root, reading.env,.conf,.json,.yaml,.yml,.sql,.log,.txt,.js, and dotfiles. Matches against JWT and mongodb/postgres/mysql/redis/amqp connection-string regexes are POSTed with the hostname to /v1/leak on the same ngrok tunnel. The ngrok-free.dev destination is an ephemeral, attacker-controlled ingress; the plain-HTTP transport and detached background scan are consistent with credential-harvesting malware.
