OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-4823 confirms this npm version as malicious. Part of a multi-package malicious campaign, \`msc-terminal\` (npm author \`nhpkevte1576\`) carries the same payload as \`eo-terminal\` and \`logger-draft\` — a fully-featured infostealer and remote access trojan (RAT) deployed via a \`postinstall\` hook. All three packages share the same C2 infrastructure and attack chain. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** external-osv-malicious-v1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 100.0% - **Started:** 2026-06-30T15:00:00.099Z - **Finished:** 2026-06-30T15:00:00.099Z - **Download time:** Not available - **Static scan time:** Not available - **AI review time:** Not available - **Total time:** Not available The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis No additional public attack-surface or AI-review details are available. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to msc-terminal@3.2.0. - Avoid installing msc-terminal@3.2.0. 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% Part of a multi-package malicious campaign, \`msc-terminal\` (npm author \`nhpkevte1576\`) carries the same payload as \`eo-terminal\` and \`logger-draft\` — a fully-featured infostealer and remote access trojan (RAT) deployed via a \`postinstall\` hook. All three packages share the same C2 infrastructure and attack chain. On installation, the \`postinstall\` hook copies a large JavaScript agent to a persistent location disguised as \`MicrosoftSystem64\` and registers it as a system service (systemd on Linux, LaunchAgent on macOS, scheduled task or registry run key on Windows). A sandbox check (CPU count and CPU model string) aborts execution in analysis environments. The install process exits cleanly with \`process.exit(0)\`, leaving no visible error output. \*\*C2 infrastructure:\*\* Primary WebSocket/HTTP C2 at \`ws://195.201.194.107:8010\` (Hetzner Cloud, Germany). Stolen data is also exfiltrated to HuggingFace repository \`yszf984308/system-release\` via a hardcoded API token. \*\*Capabilities\*\* (shared with campaign): - \*\*Keylogger\*\* — keystroke and password capture with offline queuing - \*\*Clipboard harvesting\*\* — 1,000 ms polling via platform-native tools - \*\*Screenshot capture and live streaming\*\* - \*\*Browser credential theft\*\* — Chromium-family and Firefox profile directories - \*\*Crypto wallet exfiltration\*\* — 20+ desktop wallets - \*\*SSH backdoor\*\* — exfiltrates SSH keys and injects attacker RSA public key into \`authorized\_keys\` - \*\*Shell history theft\*\* — 15+ history file formats across all user home directories - \*\*Environment variable and \`.env\` file theft\*\* — targets cloud and CI/CD credentials at install time - \*\*Telegram session theft\*\* — full \`tdata/\` directory exfiltration - \*\*Cloud credential theft\*\* — AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, Docker, GnuPG - \*\*Recursive filesystem scan\*\* — certificate, key, and wallet files uploaded to HuggingFace - \*\*Remote command execution\*\* and interactive terminal sessions - \*\*Self-update\*\* via HuggingFace-hosted native binaries --- \#\# Source: amazon-inspector (eec05fa3df0248b788635026129e1ca42d37887fe05235f20f2e9ad6f0ad6f27) Cross-platform infostealer/RAT. postinstall installs obfuscated payload.js as 'MicrosoftSystem64' persistence (schtasks/launchctl/systemd). Keylogger w/ password-field detection, 27-wallet drainer, browser+SSH cred exfil, HuggingFace as covert C2. ## Dependencies and install lifecycle - **Lifecycle scripts present:** No - **Dependencies:** 0 - **Optional dependencies:** 0 - **Peer dependencies:** 0 - **Development dependencies:** 0 - **Published dependency-graph edges:** 0 ## Package metadata - **Package:** msc-terminal - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 3.2.0 - **Version published:** Not available - **Package first seen:** 2026-06-30T15:00:00.099Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-06-30T15:00:00.099Z - **Known versions:** 1 - **Latest version:** 3.2.0 - **Appeal under review:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OpenSSF/OSV advisory]() - [PACKAGE]() - [WEB]()
