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-2026-17670/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-17670/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-17670","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-17670/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-17670","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g6w5-p954-xcfr"],"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 `\"libsignal\": \"github:tenka-san/libsignal-node\"` as a runtime dependency. The source is a GitHub user account unrelated to the package publisher (`itsmeeaizat1`) and unrelated to the upstream Baileys project (`WhiskeySockets`), with no commit SHA, tag, or integrity check. `npm install` resolves the current HEAD of that repository and executes any lifecycle scripts it ships, so whoever controls `tenka-san/libsignal-node` controls code installed on the installer's machine. The shipped `lib/Signal/libsignal.js` requires this dependency by name, so the pulled code is loaded at runtime as well. The separate `fetchLatestBaileysVersion` / `fetchLatestWaWebVersion` GET requests to `raw.githubusercontent.com/WhiskeySockets/Baileys` and `web.whatsapp.com/sw.js` are read-only version probes with no installer data in the request body.\n\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
