vitest-axios

Package published as `vitest-axios` re-ships axios source, README, homepage, and repository metadata to impersonate the legitimate `axios` HTTP client. In dist/node/axios.cjs (the declared `main`), a top-level `var fs = require('fs-extra-core');` replaces upstream axios's `require('fs')`, and `fs-extra-core@^1.3.4` is declared in dependencies — a lookalike of the legitimate `fs-extra` package. Because the require sits at the top of the main module, whatever `fs-extra-core` exports or executes runs on every `require('vitest-axios')` / `import 'vitest-axios'`, resolving attacker-controlled code into the installer's dependency tree at import time. Package metadata (name, description, keywords, repository `axios/axios`, homepage `axios-http.com`, README titled `axios-native`, copyright dated 2026) is engineered to deceive installers into believing they are installing axios or a vitest-axios integration. ## Source: ghsa-malware (5309dc413289d10c8d1cf1b2593f5e29c7810c23f60cb8e2c7709884cdba4c04) Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
