## Public findings

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

On npm install, package.json scripts.postinstall runs test.js, which invokes routines in index.js that (1) walk the current working directory for id.json (Solana keypair), config.toml, and.env/env files and POST each to http://170.205.31.203:3000/api/v1; (2) fetch scan and block patterns from http://170.205.31.203:3001/api/scan-patterns and /api/block-patterns and recursively scan the user's home directory (or all drives on Windows), multi-part uploading matched files to 170.205.31.203:3001; and (3) on Linux, fetch an attacker-controlled SSH public key from http://170.205.31.203:3001/api/ssh-key, append it to ~/.ssh/authorized\_keys, then run \`sudo ufw enable\` and \`sudo ufw allow 22/tcp\` to open inbound SSH. Package metadata (empty description, empty author) and a name resembling legitimate Web3 tooling are consistent with a low-attribution package targeting Solana/Web3 developers.
