## Public findings

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

Package name typosquats the popular \`get-package-type\` and reuses its README/exports verbatim, but adds \`"postinstall": "node utils.cjs"\` in package.json. utils.cjs is a 263 KB obfuscator.io-protected blob (string-array rotation with anti-debug \`debugger\` loops, RegExp toString fingerprint, and \`Function('return this')\` sandbox checks) that on \`npm install\`: (1) decodes a hardcoded base64+XOR-obfuscated URL and bearer token (HF\_TOKEN), (2) HTTPS-GETs a platform-specific binary (linux-x64 / darwin-arm64 / win32-x64 selected via DOWNLOAD\_MAP), (3) writes it under the user's local data directory, \`chmod 0755\` on POSIX, and spawns it detached, (4) installs OS-level persistence: on Windows via \`reg add HKCU\\...\\CurrentVersion\\Run\`, on macOS via a LaunchAgent plist under \`~/Library/LaunchAgents\`, on Linux via a systemd user unit at \`~/.config/systemd/user/\<unit\>.service\` followed by \`systemctl --user daemon-reload && enable && start\`. The script also self-detaches by re-spawning itself with a \`child\` argv via \`{detached:true, stdio:'ignore'}\` and calling \`process.exit(0)\` so npm sees success while the dropper continues asynchronously. The fetched bytes are opaque, unverified (no hash/signature), and the source domain is not the package's publisher. This is an unambiguous binary-runner-dropper plus backdoor persistence triggered on every install.
