MAL-2026-4427

Summary: Malicious code in @rocketreach/rr-components (npm)

Details: Source: amazon-inspector (c1c16148ad4c13ad5d5cbfe951d9ca934a0912ab5ad75c3b4afee19be86172fa) On `npm install`, both `preinstall` and `postinstall` lifecycle hooks execute `postinstall.js`, which collects host identifiers (hostname, platform, arch, OS username, cwd, Node version) and the full sorted list of `process.env` key names, then POSTs the JSON payload to a hardcoded `https://webhook.site/d81181e1-e40b-478f-a0b4-f18069f9f677` collector. The package name `@rocketreach/rr-components` at version `9999.0.0` together with the self-identifying `proof: "dependency-confusion-poc"` field in the payload is the canonical dependency-confusion shape: publishing a high-version package under a target organization's private scope to public npm so that any misconfigured internal build resolves it. Even environment variable NAMES (not values) leak CI secret-naming schemes useful for follow-on attacks. Fires automatically on install with no user interaction. Source: ghsa-malware (3b9765637da4d6feb524bd1a160685bf99f36e8347830ddba30b95979e72e58b) 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.
