@baanx/abisnpm
@baanx/abis is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-16351) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 9.9.11). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in @baanx/abis (npm)
What this malware does
Package declares scripts.install: node index.js, which loads runtime/support/telemetry/probe/impl.js. That module reads the installer's OS username (os.userInfo().username), hostname (os.hostname()), and current working directory basename (process.cwd()), joins them with a timestamp and the prefix bxabis under the suffix oob.algamil7x.xyz, and issues a dns.resolve4 lookup on the composed name — a DNS-tunnel exfiltration of installer host identity to an attacker-controlled domain. The behavior fires automatically on npm install and again on require. The module names, method references (_load('os'), _load('dns'), userInfo, hostname, cwd, resolve4), the prefix bxabis, and the destination domain are all reconstructed from char-code hex arrays, and the surrounding files carry telemetry/connectivity probe cover-story comments. The destination is unrelated to any legitimate endpoint of a smart-contract ABI library.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for @baanx/abis (version 9.9.11). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging @baanx/abis across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
@baanx/abis is built to steal secrets, so assume every credential the build or runtime could read is compromised. Remove it from your project and lockfile, then rotate ALL exposed secrets — npm/registry tokens, cloud keys, CI/CD secrets, SSH keys, and any .env values — from a known-clean machine. Audit logs for unauthorized use of those credentials.
Did it already run?
If @baanx/abis was ever installed, its post-install/runtime payload may have already executed. O3's L7 egress monitoring and runtime eBPF sensors detect the credential exfiltration or command-and-control callback after install and block the malicious outbound channel, so you catch and contain the actual compromise — not just the presence of the package.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks @baanx/abis before install through its supply-chain scanner, and if it has already run, detects and severs the exfiltration or C2 callback at runtime through L7 egress monitoring and eBPF.
