@oplus/obus-web-sdknpm
Advisory published Updated
@oplus/obus-web-sdk is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-5425) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 99.99.99). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in @oplus/obus-web-sdk (npm)
What this malware does
On npm install, the package's scripts/postinstall.js collects the installer's username (os.userInfo()), hostname (os.hostname()), current working directory (process.cwd()), and public IP (fetched from https://api.ipify.org), then exfiltrates the data to a hardcoded interactsh C2 subdomain xjaipnfhcpawuhzlgzkzo1ak3aai9m873.oast.fun through two channels: a DNS lookup with the hex-encoded payload as a subdomain, and an HTTPS GET to /poc carrying the data base64-encoded in an x-poc header. The package uses the @oplus scope (impersonating OPlus/Oppo internal namespaces) and is published at version 99.99.99 — the canonical dependency-confusion pattern designed to outrank any legitimate internal release during resolution. The in-source comment framing this as a benign PoC does not change the installer-side harm: any build that resolves @oplus/obus-web-sdk against the public registry will leak host/user/IP/cwd to attacker infrastructure.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for @oplus/obus-web-sdk (version 99.99.99).
If you installed it — respond
@oplus/obus-web-sdk 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 @oplus/obus-web-sdk was installed, its post-install payload may already have run. Removing the package does not undo that — check outbound connections and credential use from the install window onward.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks @oplus/obus-web-sdk-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
