If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4.

Errors and timeouts are silently swallowed. The version number (99.0.0) and beacon shape are consistent with a dependency-confusion proof-of-install callback: the destination is a non-first-party bare IP the installer never configured, and the outbound call fires automatically without user consent. Regardless of the 'canary' self-label, host-identifier data leaves the installer's machine to an attacker-controlled endpoint at install time.","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 pilgrimage-portal-client (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-13453","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":"pilgrimage-portal-client","purl":"pkg:npm/pilgrimage-portal-client","source":"MAL-2026-13453"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-08-06","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-2026-13453/"}
