Every version was published to cause harm.\n\nTask:\n1. Search this repository's dependency manifests and lockfiles for the package, including transitive dependencies.\n2. 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. If the package is not used anywhere, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-6292/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-6292/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-6292","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-6292/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-6292","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7f28-77wf-r7r3"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"package.json declares a postinstall lifecycle script that fires automatically on `npm install`.

The destination is a bare IPv4 over cleartext HTTP — not a publisher domain or known infrastructure. The package is published under the `@outmarket` scope with a description identifying it as a dependency-confusion proof-of-concept, but the on-install behavior is indistinguishable from a real dependency-confusion beacon: any installer who resolves this public package in place of an internal `@outmarket/utils` will leak host identity to the hardcoded endpoint. Hex obfuscation of standard Node API names is evasion, not a legitimate engineering choice.","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 @outmarket/utils (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-6292","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":"@outmarket/utils","purl":"pkg:npm/%40outmarket/utils","source":"MAL-2026-6292"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-06-23","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-2026-6292/"}
