What is MAL-2026-17238?
MAL-2026-17238 is a malicious package in rai6jaisahthaghee5ou-loader-package, published on 28 Sep 2026.
Official description
The package's main module is an IIFE that injects a <script> element pointing at the hardcoded URL https://nee1ahnaw7.xsses.link and appends it to the document, causing whatever JavaScript that host serves to execute in the caller's page context. The destination is unpinned, opaque, unrelated to the package's declared identity or publisher, and the host name aligns with XSS/payload delivery infrastructure. Any application that bundles this dependency will fetch and execute attacker-controlled JavaScript at runtime, granting full code execution within the app's origin — enabling credential/session theft, arbitrary DOM manipulation, and further payload staging.
What should I do about MAL-2026-17238?
Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
