OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-11400 confirms this npm version as malicious. The package's main entry (index.js) re-exports two values, rsaKey and desKey, from apps/docs/app/theta.js, which simply readFileSync's apps/docs/app/rsa.db and apps/docs/app/des.db as UTF-8 strings. Both.db files are base64-encoded OpenSSL 'Salted\_\_' ciphertext. The package contains no code that decrypts, uses, or otherwise interacts with these blobs, and no documented API beyond exposing them... ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** external-osv-malicious-v1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Malicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 100.0% - **Started:** 2026-08-05T06:50:09.955Z - **Finished:** 2026-08-05T06:50:09.955Z - **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 thedata@1.0.13. The same advisory and Firewall decision cover these 11 recorded versions: 1.0.0, 1.0.11, 1.0.12, 1.0.13, 1.0.2, 1.0.3, 1.0.5, 1.0.6, 1.0.7, 1.0.8, 1.0.9. - Avoid installing thedata@1.0.13. 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% The package's main entry (index.js) re-exports two values, rsaKey and desKey, from apps/docs/app/theta.js, which simply readFileSync's apps/docs/app/rsa.db and apps/docs/app/des.db as UTF-8 strings. Both.db files are base64-encoded OpenSSL 'Salted\_\_' ciphertext. The package contains no code that decrypts, uses, or otherwise interacts with these blobs, and no documented API beyond exposing them. The package name resembles 'Theta Data' per the README but the shipped functionality does not implement any such client. Installing or importing thedata by itself performs no network activity, no filesystem access outside its own directory, no credential reads, and no code execution — the encrypted payloads are inert unless a separate consumer supplies the decryption key. The shape (a nearly-empty library whose only purpose is to serve opaque encrypted content to another party) is unusual for a legitimate library but does not by itself establish installer harm from this package alone. \#\# Source: ghsa-malware (1a92a93e170cd900d44df29d9f451294b09f9138882739c1f1874a2e09c4f3a1) Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it. ## 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:** thedata - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Version:** 1.0.13 - **Version published:** 2026-07-24T05:20:04.741Z - **Package first seen:** 2026-08-05T06:50:09.955Z - **Package last seen:** 2026-08-05T06:50:09.955Z - **Known versions:** 14 - **Latest version:** 1.0.13 - **Appeal under review:** No ## References - [HTML security report]() - [OpenSSF/OSV advisory]() - [ADVISORY]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]() - [PACKAGE]()
