@nasddatax/commonnpm
@nasddatax/common is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12323) that opens a backdoor for remote access (malicious version 1.0.21). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in @nasddatax/common (npm)
What this malware does
build/index.js appends an eval(atob(...)) trailer after legitimate re-exports. On require, the decoded loader queries public Ethereum JSON-RPC endpoints for the latest transaction from the hardcoded address 0xa322E5f3D311D3080e6f0121063e9aDC2490Ef1a, decodes the 20-byte tx.to value into two IPv4 addresses, fetches an XOR-obfuscated JavaScript payload from http://<ip>:443/0x/cls and http://<ip>:443/0x/ls, decodes an x-payload-b64 response header, and executes the result via eval and a detached spawn('node', ['-e', payload]). Security-relevant identifiers (http, child_process, spawn, method and header strings) are written as \u00XX unicode escapes to hide the behavior. Any application that requires this package runs attacker-controlled code on the installer's machine, and the C2 destination can be rotated on-chain without republishing the package. Package metadata (empty author, empty description, scoped <scope>/common name) is consistent with an impostor common-utilities package.

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 @nasddatax/common (version 1.0.21). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging @nasddatax/common across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
@nasddatax/common 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 @nasddatax/common 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 @nasddatax/common 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.
