MAL-2026-19043

Malicious code in yuliawhh (npm)

Details

yuliawhh is a fork of the Baileys WhatsApp Web library that silently subscribes the installer's own WhatsApp account to WhatsApp Channels chosen by the publisher. When the socket connects, code in lib/Socket/socket.js sends the WhatsApp w:mex FOLLOW query for the channel ID(s) 120363422344105323@newsletter, 120363425728944719@newsletter, using the victim's authenticated session and without telling them. Same behaviour as the PhantomSub family (MAL-2026-17342).
