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.

The package itself is hollow: `index.js` only exports `{ name, version }` and provides no functionality. The `repository.url` claims `git+https://github.com/zomato/blinkit-core.git` while publishing under that internal-sounding name on the public registry, matching the canonical dependency-confusion attacker shape against Zomato's internal `blinkit-core` namespace. Installer harm: any build pipeline that resolves this public package instead of an internal mirror leaks host identity and the full environment (including secrets) to the attacker's out-of-band interaction listener at install time, before any other code runs.\n\nThe OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'blinkit-core' @ 1.0.0 (npm) as malicious.\n\nIt is considered malicious because:\n\n- The package communicates with a domain associated with malicious activity.\n\n- The package executes one or more commands associated with malicious behavior.","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 blinkit-core (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-6249","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":"blinkit-core","purl":"pkg:npm/blinkit-core","source":"MAL-2026-6249"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-06-21","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-2026-6249/"}
