What is MAL-2026-10486?

MAL-2026-10486 is a malicious package in @omniwatch-wick/cli, published on 13 Jul 2026.

Official description

index.js imports child_process, os, http, and https, and issues POST requests to two hardcoded endpoints: https://agentpolice-api.vedantn06soni.workers.dev (referenced at lines 17 and 272 and used in the POST at line 75) and https://night-watch-indol.vercel.app (line 195). The code collects host-identifying data (os.userInfo(), hostname, process.platform, an id field) and transmits it to these endpoints. The destinations are a Cloudflare Workers subdomain under an individual's handle and a Vercel preview-style domain, neither of which is an established vendor or documented backend. However, the package is a CLI whose purpose may involve legitimate telemetry or monitoring to an author-hosted backend, and without traced code confirming whether these calls fire at install/import time or only on explicit user CLI invocation, and whether the transmitted fields include installer secrets beyond mild host identity, the intent (undisclosed telemetry to an author backend vs. covert exfiltration) cannot be conclusively determined. Human review is warranted to inspect the exact fields sent, the trigger timing, and whether the endpoints are the package's documented backend.

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.

What should I do about MAL-2026-10486?

Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
