Malicious code in some-very-long-package-name (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. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: amazon-inspector (58c08ea2abb307f6ecb9a1896fcc3980e9a1eaf8b29044db67cd985654e1db16) The package is a stub whose main module exports a Proxy that returns a no-op for every property access, providing none of the functionality implied by the package name or its 'compatibility shim' description. Its only real behavior is beacon.cjs, which collects host and install identifiers (hostname, install path, process.cwd(), process.version, package name/user-agent) and POSTs them to the hardcoded bare-IP HTTP endpoint http://185.158.107.175:8787/_ah/dc. The beacon fires both automatically at install time via scripts.postinstall and again when the module is loaded via require(), because index.js invokes beacon.fire(). The shape — stub module, hardcoded non-DNS bare-IP C2 over plain HTTP, collection of installer host identifiers at install and require time — is consistent with a dependency-confusion / internal-name-squat reconnaissance beacon reporting successful installation inside private build environments.
