Malicious code in ventrix-kit (npm)

CISA KEV lists vulnerabilities known to be exploited. FIRST EPSS estimates the likelihood of exploitation in the next 30 days. An unavailable score does not mean zero risk.

No exploitation or prediction data is available here for these CVEs. This does not mean they are safe or unlikely to be exploited.

--- _-= Per source details.

The destination is a bare IP on a non-standard port with no pinning, signing, or integrity verification; the executed content is fully attacker-controlled and mutable server-side. The package's metadata and identifiers frame the loader as a CDN icon fetcher (`iconDomain`, `path = "/icons/"`, a `bearrtoken: "logo"` header, a `font-awesome`-shaped path, and an unused `setDefaultModule` referencing cdnjs/cloudflare/fastly), and the README advertises the package as a lightweight zero-dependency helper while `dependencies` include axios, express, better-sqlite3, @primno/dpapi, node-machine-id, and socket.io-client — a native-Windows-credential (DPAPI) plus persistent-socket stack inconsistent with an icon helper. Any code path that reaches `getPlugin` grants remote code execution on the consumer's host to the operator of 31.97.137.157.
