What is MAL-2026-10208?
MAL-2026-10208 is a malicious package in @meziizana/frontend-logger, published on 12 Jul 2026.
Official description
package.json declares a preinstall lifecycle script that runs wget against https://webhook.site/f164a383-b9e7-4379-b18c-38bf41a3c152/ with query parameters carrying the installer's username ($(whoami)), current working directory ($(pwd)), and hostname ($(hostname)). This fires automatically on
npm install with no user consent and sends installer-identifying reconnaissance data to a third-party collection endpoint. webhook.site is a public request-inspection service commonly abused as a low-effort exfiltration sink; the destination is not tied to any legitimate build or install task.What should I do about MAL-2026-10208?
Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
