Every version was published to cause harm.\n\nTask:\n1. Search this repository's dependency manifests and lockfiles for the package, including transitive dependencies.\n2. 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. If the package is not used anywhere, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-15541/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-15541/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-15541","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-15541/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-15541","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rqm2-xgr5-297v"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"package.json declares a dependency whose key (`oit-lib-oracle-util`) matches this package's own name and whose value is a bare HTTPS URL — `https://repo.securityctrl.com/oit-lib-oracle-util` — instead of a registry version range. On `npm install`, npm fetches whatever bytes that URL returns at install time and installs them, running any lifecycle scripts inside the fetched artifact. The source is unpinned, has no integrity hash, and is unrelated to the npm registry; the host `repo.securityctrl.com` is not a known registry mirror and has no association with a declared publisher. The shipped index.js is an inert stub, so the manifest itself is the entire delivery mechanism. The self-referential name and implausibly high version (45.0.0) are consistent with a dependency-confusion lure designed to win resolution against an internal package of the same name.\n\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
