Importing the package automatically launches a detached JavaScript loader that retrieves and executes additional code from npoint.io. The retrieved payload communicates with an attacker-controlled server and implements clipboard collection, keyboard and mouse event collection, filesystem scanning, and theft of Chrome extension storage.\n\n---\n_-= Per source details.

The detached-and-unref'd child, suppressed stdio, and stealth child_process wrapper are consistent with a persistent covert loader whose actual behavior is controlled by whoever owns the npoint bin.\n","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-09-12T13:35:09+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-09-16T01:30:06.4486147+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"id79-client","ranges":[],"versions":["1.1.79"],"rawVersionEvidence":null}],"metrics":[],"references":[],"sourceUrl":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/MAL-2026-16173","license":"OSV · upstream source license applies","key":"osv:MAL-2026-16173","identifiers":["MAL-2026-16173"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
