Description

Malicious code in boardwalk-js-tests (npm)

Source: amazon-inspector

package.json declares preinstall: node index.js. On npm install, index.js collects the installer's hostname, username, homedir, DNS server list, and current working directory, reads /etc/passwd and /etc/hosts, and POSTs the JSON payload over HTTPS to h8q14cqgn5ra8v0bjg70nqxsbjhc52tr.oastify.com — a Burp Collaborator (OAST) subdomain used as an attacker-controlled exfiltration callback. The package provides no advertised functionality; its sole install-time behavior is host reconnaissance and data exfiltration.
