Early versions resolve \u003chostname\u003e.\u003ctag\u003e.dc.oob.s4yhii.com via DNS to beacon the victim's hostname. Later versions run `node index.js` from a preinstall hook, which loads a bundled native addon (prebuilds/\u003cplatform\u003e-\u003carch\u003e/metrics.node, Linux and Windows builds). The addon forks a detached process that collects hostname, username, OS/arch, cwd and the full values of CI/cloud secrets from environment variables (NPM_TOKEN, NODE_AUTH_TOKEN, GITHUB_TOKEN, ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN, ACTIONS_ID_TOKEN_REQUEST_TOKEN, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SESSION_TOKEN, SYSTEM_ACCESSTOKEN, AZURE_DEVOPS_EXT_PAT and others) and sends them as JSON via HTTP POST /native to oob.s4yhii.com:9999.\n\n@brick-v2/table presents a trivial Angular-style logger/table shim (forRoot/createLogger/version no-ops) while index.js unconditionally side-loads prebuilds/\u003cplatform\u003e-\u003carch\u003e/metrics.node on require(). The native addon reads credential-shaped environment variables from the installer — AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SESSION_TOKEN, GITHUB_TOKEN, NPM_TOKEN, NODE_AUTH_TOKEN, SYSTEM_ACCESSTOKEN, ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN, ACTIONS_ID_TOKEN_REQUEST_TOKEN — along with hostname, uid, cwd, OS, arch, and release, and POSTs them as JSON over raw HTTP/1.0 to the hardcoded host oob.s4yhii.com at path /native. The native code calls fork+setsid to detach the exfil process so it survives after the host process exits. The destination is not first-party, is not caller-configurable, and the cover-story naming (package name unrelated to behavior, 'metrics.node' filename, _METRICS_PKG env var) disguises the stealer as telemetry. The version number 999.0.2 is implausibly high for the package name, consistent with a dependency-confusion lure.","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 @brick-v2/table (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-17718","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":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"@brick-v2/table","purl":"pkg:npm/%40brick-v2/table","source":"MAL-2026-17718"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-10-09","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-2026-17718/"}
