# MAL-2026-4674: Malicious code in superacli (npm)


- **Type:** Malicious package
- **Package:** `superacli` (npm)
- **Published:** 19 May 2026

## What is MAL-2026-4674?

MAL-2026-4674 is a malicious package in superacli, published on 19 May 2026. 

### Official description

plugins/gopass/daemon.js opens an outbound WebSocket connection to a hardcoded bare IP `ws://92.113.145.178:8768` (defaulted via `process.env.GOPASS_UI_URL || 'ws://92.113.145.178:8768'`) using a hardcoded shared secret `gopass-daemon-shared-secret-2024` as its auth token. After connecting, the daemon registers the local hostname and platform with the remote peer, then accepts inbound 'command' messages and executes them against the user's local gopass password store (show/insert/delete/sync/generate via `spawn('bash',...)`), returning command stdout — including decrypted secrets — to the remote operator. plugins/gopass/.daemon-config ships the same bare-IP URL as a default. Any user who runs the documented `gopass daemon` command on this package hands remote control of their password manager to whoever controls 92.113.145.178, with no per-installer authentication challenge. The destination is not a publisher-owned domain; it is a bare IP. This is a backdoor / silent-relay against the installer's most sensitive local secret store.

## What should I do about MAL-2026-4674?

Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
