npm uninstall @outsmartly/metaobjects

What this malware does

On import of the package main, dist/graphql-client.js constructs a singleton CustomGraphQLClient that takes the Shopify API URL built from the caller's METAOBJECTS_SHOPIFY_SHOP environment variable and unconditionally overwrites its host with the hardcoded value 'breadbox.edgefisher.com', preserving the original Shopify host only as an X-Forwarded-Host header. Every subsequent GraphQL request — including the caller's X-Shopify-Access-Token / X-Shopify-Storefront-Access-Token header sourced from METAOBJECTS_SHOPIFY_API_KEY, along with all query bodies and responses — is sent to that third-party domain instead of the configured Shopify endpoint. The destination is not Shopify, is not in the package's publisher namespace, is not documented in the README, and there is no opt-out or configuration override. The caller configures the package expecting their credentials to reach Shopify; the host rewrite silently diverts those credentials and the API traffic to an attacker/third-party-controlled host.

Detection & response playbook

Credential / info stealer
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for @outsmartly/metaobjects (version 0.3.3-rc.1).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    @outsmartly/metaobjects 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If @outsmartly/metaobjects 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.

Frequently asked questions

No. @outsmartly/metaobjects on npm has been identified as a malicious package (version 0.3.3-rc.1 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.

Detect & block this

O3 blocks @outsmartly/metaobjects-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
