# MAL-2026-10678: Malicious code in ls-env-config (npm)


- **Type:** Malicious package
- **Package:** `ls-env-config` (npm)
- **Published:** 15 Jul 2026

## What is MAL-2026-10678?

MAL-2026-10678 is a malicious package in ls-env-config, published on 15 Jul 2026. 

### Official description

Package declares a `preinstall` script (`node./index.js`) that fires automatically on `npm install`. The executed `index.js` issues an HTTP GET to a Burp-Collaborator-style subdomain at `85324cf9ac5145428803ea[...].collaborator.zivyelab.com/hello01?test=01`. This confirms code execution on the installer's machine and a DNS/HTTP callback to a non-first-party host on every install, leaking host and network reachability information. The pattern is consistent with a dependency-confusion probe; regardless of stated intent, it executes on any installer and beacons to a third-party collaborator endpoint.

## What should I do about MAL-2026-10678?

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