Versions 1.0.1 and 1.0.4 have a postinstall script that runs `node index.js` on npm install, which sends an HTTPS GET to a Cloudflare quick tunnel (`https://nobody-johnston-with-enabling.trycloudflare.com/aa?x=1` and `https://imaging-amazing-trunk-surgeons.trycloudflare.com/marker104?v=1`). Version 1.0.10 runs when the package is loaded: it fetches `/api/modules/ECT-654321` from `http://154.57.164.64:30664` and `http://127.0.0.1:3000`, reads up to ten local files whose paths the reply lists in `data.cargo_hold`, and PUTs the first 400 characters of their contents to `/api/modules/ECT-987654` on both hosts. It was published by the npm account kristol07, which published two more packages the same day (phantom-chartwinds and phantom-powder-keg, placeholder versions only so far).\n\n---\n_-= Per source details.

The remote operator chooses which files on the installer's host are read and uploaded. The uploaded body is wrapped in a fake `ecto_module` YAML manifest with fields like `cargo_hold` and `power_level: SYNCED`, and the package self-describes as a 'local module config sync helper' — a cover story disguising arbitrary file exfiltration as benign module-sync telemetry. The hardcoded bare-IP destination is not associated with any legitimate publisher infrastructure.\n","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-10-28T05:37:50+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-29T14:30:44.6239016+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"spectral-net-probe","ranges":[],"versions":["1.0.1","1.0.4","1.0.10"],"rawVersionEvidence":null}],"metrics":[],"references":["https://www.npmjs.com/package/spectral-net-probe","https://www.npmjs.com/package/spectral-net-probe/v/1.0.4","https://www.npmjs.com/package/spectral-net-probe/v/1.0.1","https://www.npmjs.com/package/spectral-net-probe/v/1.0.10"],"sourceUrl":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/MAL-2026-18368","license":"OSV · upstream source license applies","key":"osv:MAL-2026-18368","identifiers":["MAL-2026-18368"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
