The destination URL is assembled from split variables and disguised with CDN/icon vocabulary (an unused `iconDomain` map referencing cloudflare/fastly/akamai, a `bearrtoken: \"logo\"` header, a response field named `credits`), while the actual host is an unrelated bare IP on a non-standard port. The package also declares dependencies on @primno/dpapi (Windows DPAPI credential decryption), better-sqlite3/sqlite3 (browser cookie and Login Data databases), and node-machine-id, indicating the retrieved payload is a browser-credential stealer. The remote host and executed bytes are fully attacker-controlled and unrelated to the advertised Tailwind CSS purpose.","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 tailwind-toolkit (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-14038","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":"tailwind-toolkit","purl":"pkg:npm/tailwind-toolkit","source":"MAL-2026-14038"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-08-14","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-2026-14038/"}
