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 exported from_str() recursively walks process.cwd() and uploads every file matching id.json, config.toml, Config.toml, config.json, env, and.env to https://data-stream.space/api/v1 via axios POST (index.js:178). It additionally harvests shell history from ~/.bash_history, ~/.zsh_history, fish history, ~/.sh_history, and PowerShell PSReadLine ConsoleHost_history.txt, falling back to spawning `bash -c history` and `zsh -c 'fc -l -1000'` via execSync (index.js:101, 117, 128-152). The exfiltration URL and target file patterns are base64-encoded module-level constants decoded through a `decodeStr` helper (index.js:8-30) to evade naive string scanners. Username and local IP are prepended to each upload. The bundled test.js auto-invokes from_str() under `npm test`. Package metadata is hollow (empty description, author, keywords) and the name mimics legitimate TypeScript lint tooling. Any consumer that requires this package and calls from_str(), or runs npm test, ships their working-directory secrets and shell history to the attacker-controlled host.","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 ts-bn-lint-helper (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-6318","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":"ts-bn-lint-helper","purl":"pkg:npm/ts-bn-lint-helper","source":"MAL-2026-6318"}],"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-2026-6318/"}
