What is MAL-2026-13762?
MAL-2026-13762 is a malicious package in developer-dashboard, published on 11 Aug 2026.
Official description
The package presents itself as a 'developer dashboard' but ships a heavily obfuscated single-file payload (obfuscator.io-style _0xXXXX identifiers with a rotated string array) that harvests Discord tokens, saved logins, MFA/backup codes, stored payment methods (Stripe/Braintree), and account metadata, and additionally scrapes Roblox cookies, Steam data, and Telegram data. The hooker routine prepends os.hostname() and os.userInfo().username to each payload and POSTs the stolen data along with zipped session/log archives (session.zip, logs.zip) to a hardcoded Discord webhook at https://discord.com/api/webhooks/1536683755937202208/..., with a t.me/umidivouches Telegram channel referenced in the embed footer. An embedded base64 blob decodes to an Electron session.webRequest injection module with %INJECT_WEBHOOK% / %INJECT_DUALHOOK% placeholders that hook wss://remote-auth-gateway.discord.gg/*, /auth/login, /mfa/totp, and /users/@me to intercept Discord authentication in-app. The package also downloads a portable Python runtime (python.3.10.0.nupkg from globalcdn.nuget.org), extracts python.exe, and executes a generated temp script from the install directory — an alternate-runtime dropper unrelated to any dashboard function. Anti-analysis code enumerates blacklisted hostnames/usernames (e.g., DESKTOP-JHUHOTB, WINZDS-VQH86L5D) and analyst tools (ghidra, hiew, sysmon64, vboxservice) to skip execution on researcher machines.
Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
What should I do about MAL-2026-13762?
Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
