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.

It collects hostname, username, current working directory, platform, and the output of OS commands including `whoami /all`, `ipconfig /all` / `ifconfig`, `tasklist` / `ps aux`, directory listings of `/`, `C:\\`, and the user's home, and a dump of environment variables. The collected data is transmitted via HTTP GET and POST to the hardcoded bare IP endpoint `http://209.126.81.147/etoro-nuget-verify1f8eaa57a875/v4/...`. The package's declared main is an empty stub and its description (\"Internal service client library\") combined with the implausibly high version number `99.0.2` is consistent with a dependency-confusion attack targeting an internal `etoro-aggregator` name. The manifest plus the preinstall script constitute the entire payload; installing the package leaks installer host identity, network configuration, filesystem structure, and environment variables (which routinely contain credentials and tokens) to an attacker-controlled endpoint.","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 etoro-aggregator (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-16111","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":"etoro-aggregator","purl":"pkg:npm/etoro-aggregator","source":"MAL-2026-16111"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-09-10","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-2026-16111/"}
