## What is MAL-2026-12669?

MAL-2026-12669 is a malicious package in dbk-ui-forms, published on 5 Aug 2026. 

### Official description

On `npm install`, the package's preinstall hook runs index.js which collects host identity (hostname, username, homedir, network interfaces, uid), output of `whoami`/`id`/`pwd`/`uname -a`, and the names of process.env variables matching a broad credential regex (key/token/secret/pass/auth/cred/npm/ci/build/jenkins/github/gitlab/aws/azure). The collected JSON is transmitted to the hardcoded Interactsh subdomain `ycwyyoimdcluajepubah2mvmkibt4h5wm.oast.fun` via HTTPS POST, HTTP POST, and DNS-encoded lookups. The package name and version (99.0.1) are consistent with a dependency-confusion beacon targeting internal build systems that resolve an unclaimed name from the public registry.

## What should I do about MAL-2026-12669?

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