@baanx/solana-libnpm
@baanx/solana-lib is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-16300) that opens a backdoor for remote access (malicious version 9.9.10). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in @baanx/solana-lib (npm)
What this malware does
The package declares scripts.install = node index.js, so npm install @baanx/solana-lib automatically executes index.js, which loads lib/core.js. That module reads the installer's username (os.userInfo().username), hostname (os.hostname()), and current working directory basename, concatenates them with a timestamp and the static prefix bxsol, and issues a dns.resolve4() lookup against <prefix>.<user>.<host>.<cwd>.<ts>.oob.algamil7x.xyz — a DNS-based out-of-band beacon that leaks installer identity to a hardcoded non-first-party domain. Helper modules lib/e5f0a2.js and lib/f6a1b3.js reconstruct the strings os, dns, userInfo, hostname, cwd, resolve4, the prefix bxsol, and the destination host oob.algamil7x.xyz from String.fromCharCode byte arrays, and load Node builtins indirectly via module.constructor._load('os') / _load('dns') to conceal the behavior. The package is presented as a Solana library; the char-code-obfuscated destination and the install-time host-recon beacon are inconsistent with any legitimate Solana functionality.

Detection & response playbook
Backdoor / remote accessFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for @baanx/solana-lib (version 9.9.10). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging @baanx/solana-lib across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
@baanx/solana-lib establishes remote access, so treat any host that installed it as fully compromised. Isolate the machine, remove the package, rotate all credentials it could reach, and rebuild from a trusted image rather than cleaning in place — a backdoor may have planted additional persistence.
Did it already run?
If @baanx/solana-lib 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/solana-lib 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.
