If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3.

When the package is required or imported, the payload queries Ethereum RPCs for transactions from a hardcoded address (0xa322e5f3d311d3080e6f0121063e9adc2490ef1a), decodes attacker IPv4 addresses from the transaction `to` field bytes, and fetches XOR-encoded JavaScript from those IPs on port 443 (paths `/0x/cls` and `/0x/ls`). The fetched code is then executed both via `eval` in-process and via `spawn('node', ['-e',...], {detached:true}).unref()` as a detached child process. The C2 destinations are resolved dynamically from on-chain data, so the operator can rotate infrastructure without republishing the package. The name resembles the legitimate tailwind-scrollbar-hide package (reslear/tailwind-scrollbar-hide), consistent with a name-squat trojan.","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 scrollbar-hide-plugin (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-12192","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":"scrollbar-hide-plugin","purl":"pkg:npm/scrollbar-hide-plugin","source":"MAL-2026-12192"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-08-05","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-2026-12192/"}
