🛡️ MAL-2026-10921 — iot-kfh-s3
Description
Malicious code in iot-kfh-s3 (npm)
Source: amazon-inspector
The package's preinstall script executes node examples/verify.js, which initializes Sentry against a hardcoded author-controlled DSN at o4510485815754752.ingest.us.sentry.io/4511632673275909 with sendDefaultPii: true, resolves the installer's public IP via https://www.cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/trace, and deliberately triggers a captured exception so Sentry ships an event carrying the installer's public IP, server_name, username, and other default PII to the author's project on npm install. The library entry src/index.js additionally hardcodes the same DSN as DEFAULT_DSN, so consumers who call init() without providing options.dsn or SENTRY_DSN silently forward their application error events (which routinely contain stack frames, request data, environment values, and user identifiers) to the same author-owned endpoint. Package metadata is generic (name iot-kfh-s3 unrelated to the described Sentry-wrapper purpose, two-line README stub), inconsistent with a legitimate maintained telemetry library.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
