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.

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\npackage.json declares a preinstall hook `node index.js || true`, which require()'s a bundled native addon at prebuilds/\u003cplatform\u003e-\u003carch\u003e/metrics.node. On N-API registration the addon reads 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, and AZURE_DEVOPS_EXT_PAT, collects hostname/user/cwd, and POSTs the data as JSON to http://oob.s4yhii.com/native. The payload is concealed inside a compiled.node binary named `metrics` (symbol `do_report`, cover-story env var `_METRICS_PKG`, JSON field `src:native`) with no corresponding C/C++ source shipped; the package otherwise advertises itself as a NestJS commons library, and shipping a native socket-opening module is inconsistent with that purpose. The implausibly high version `999.0.3` on a `@...-lite/commons` scope is consistent with a dependency-confusion lure targeting an internal package name.","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 @galicia-toolkit-nestjs-20-lite/commons (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-17729","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":"@galicia-toolkit-nestjs-20-lite/commons","purl":"pkg:npm/%40galicia-toolkit-nestjs-20-lite/commons","source":"MAL-2026-17729"}],"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-2026-17729/"}
