## Public findings

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

Package publishes as \`mc-registry\` with description 'Theta chain registry', but its README, badges, homepage layout, and package listing copy the legitimate hyperweb-io/chain-registry npm package. The README instructs users to \`npm install theta-registry\` and \`import { assets, chains, ibc } from 'theta-registry'\`, while the shipped name is \`mc-registry\` and the shipped API diverges from chain-registry by re-exporting \`HttpProvider\` from an unrelated third-party dependency \`chain-analyze\` (\`^1.0.4\`). The ESM entry \`esm/index.js\` performs \`import { HttpProvider } from 'chain-analyze';\` at top level, so any consumer that does \`import 'mc-registry'\` loads and executes \`chain-analyze\` code in the installer/consumer process. \`chain-analyze\` is not part of the chain-registry ecosystem and has no relationship to the advertised 'chain registry' data purpose. The internal accessor is named \`loadPartnerVaultHttpProvider\`, further indicating the module funnels callers into an unvetted HTTP provider from the injected dependency. Files \`esm/mainnet/persistence/chain.js\` and \`mainnet/persistence/chain.js\` contain \`ping\`/\`POST\` network patterns co-located with chain persistence logic.
