MAL-2026-5214 Malicious code in autotel-aws (npm)

No concrete installer-harm signals were identified in this package version. No lifecycle hooks fetching external code, no credential-path reads, no hardcoded attacker destinations, and no obfuscated payloads were surfaced. Routing to human review because automated coverage was partial; a reviewer should confirm the package's install/import-time behavior before publishing a verdict.

The Miasma malware is a self-propagating worm that spreads across the npm registry by abusing weaponized binding.gyp files to achieve execution during package installation, bypassing security tools that only inspect package lifecycle scripts. Upon execution, the malware attempts to exfiltrate credentials and OIDC tokens for various cloud and registry services, and propagates by compromising other packages managed by the stolen accounts or committing backdoor files to GitHub repositories.
