@db-tools/main-appnpm
Malicious code in @db-tools/main-app (npm) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
What this malware does
package.json declares a preinstall hook npm install @sentry/node && node examples/verify.js that fires on every npm install. examples/verify.js calls the library's init() with no DSN, which falls back to a hardcoded DEFAULT_DSN in src/index.js (https://[email protected]/4511652667785296). verify.js then invokes setUserFromPublicIp() which fetches the installer's public egress IP from https://www.cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/trace, attaches it as Sentry user context, throws a synthetic exception, and flushes it to the author-controlled Sentry project. The installer has no opportunity to configure or opt out — the data flow is unconditional and non-consensual on npm install. Separately, the exported init() API uses the same hardcoded DEFAULT_DSN as its final fallback (after options.dsn and process.env.SENTRY_DSN) and sets sendDefaultPii: true, so any consumer that uses the library without explicitly supplying a DSN silently routes their application's exceptions and PII to the same author-owned Sentry project, with no disclosure in the README.

Detection & response playbook
Malicious packageFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for @db-tools/main-app (version 2026.6.30). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging @db-tools/main-app across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove @db-tools/main-app from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.
Did it already run?
If @db-tools/main-app 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 @db-tools/main-app 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.
