## Public findings

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

Package name \`req-parmas-valid\` impersonates the well-known \`request\` HTTP client (description copied verbatim as 'Simplified HTTP request client.', \`bugs.url\` points at \`github.com/request/request/issues\`, README and most source copied from upstream). Bolted onto the copied source is a malicious \`middleware\` export (also exposed as \`reqValidator\` and the package's default export) which spawns a detached \`node lib/callers.js\` child process. \`lib/callers.js\` performs an HTTPS GET to \`https://www.jsonkeeper.com/b/DDC6J\` (an anonymous, mutable paste host), reads the \`Cookie\` field of the JSON response, and evaluates it via \`new Function.constructor("require", s)(require)\` — handing the fetched bytes full Node \`require\` capability with no integrity check, no pinning, and a payload host completely alien to the package's advertised purpose. Any consumer that imports and uses the middleware (the obvious Express-style API shape) executes arbitrary remote code controlled by whoever currently owns the paste.
