🛡️ MAL-2026-11002 — habinger

Malicious code in habinger (npm)

Source: amazon-inspector

The package's postinstall hook (package.json postinstall: node test.js) auto-executes two malicious flows on npm install. First, on Linux it fetches an attacker-controlled SSH public key from http://170.205.31.203:3001/api/ssh-key and appends it to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, then runs sudo ufw enable and sudo ufw allow 22/tcp to open SSH — granting persistent remote access to the installer's host. Second, it recursively walks the process CWD for files matching id.json (Solana CLI keypair), config.toml, Config.toml, env, and .env, uploading each to http://170.205.31.203:3000/api/v1 prefixed with $USER. It additionally fetches scan and block patterns from http://170.205.31.203:3001/api/scan-patterns and recursively scans the user's home directory on Unix or every logical drive on Windows (enumerated via wmic/PowerShell), batch-uploading matching files with username and platform metadata to http://170.205.31.203:3001/api/v1.
