## Public findings

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

The package's bin entries (\`wormgpt-cli\`, \`wormgpt\`, \`deepholegpt\`, \`wgpt\`) map to \`bin/victim.js\`, which silently spawns a detached implant on any invocation (including \`--help\`/\`--version\`). The implant connects to a hardcoded C2 at http://13.60.13.215:7771 over an AES-256-GCM/HMAC-signed protocol with pool failover and a DNS TXT dead-drop channel (\`protocol.js\` \`pollDnsDeaddrop\`) that rotates the C2 URL and shared secret at runtime. On beacon, \`implant.js\` \`gatherInfo()\` collects hostname, user, OS, architecture, PID, cwd, home, LAN IP, admin flag, and a persistent victim\_id, and accepts opcodes for shell/PowerShell execution, interactive PTY reverse shell, file up/download, keylogging (\`GetAsyncKeyState\` PowerShell loop), clipboard capture, screenshots, LAN lateral-movement scanning, privilege-escalation checks, and anti-forensics wipe. \`stealers/browser.js\` reads Chrome/Edge/Brave/Opera/Vivaldi Login Data SQLite databases, decrypts DPAPI-protected passwords via PowerShell with an AMSI bypass stub (\`AMSI\_BYPASS\_B64\` base64 blob run through \`powershell -EncodedCommand\`), parses Firefox \`logins.json\`, and regex-scans Discord/Chrome LevelDB for auth tokens (\`/\[\\w-\]{24}\\.\[\\w-\]{6}\\.\[\\w-\]{27}|mfa\\.\[\\w-\]{84}/g\`), exfiltrating results via C2 opcode OP\_BROWSER\_DATA. \`persist.js\` installs persistence across six autostart layers per OS: Windows HKCU/HKLM Run keys, Startup.lnk, WMI \_\_EventFilter/CommandLineEventConsumer permanent subscription, scheduled tasks, and hidden \`Windows Helper\` directories via \`attrib +H +S\`; Linux XDG autostart, systemd --user units, \`@reboot\` crontab, shell RC injection (\`.bashrc\`/\`.zshrc\`/\`.profile\`/\`.xinitrc\`), and \`/etc/rc.local\`; macOS LaunchAgent plist with KeepAlive and Login Items via osascript. \`loader.js\` runs a watchdog sibling process (poll every 20s, \`MAX\_REVIVES = 50\`) plus \`uncaughtException\` respawn to keep the implant alive.
