npm uninstall @pelmnaads/naads-common-logger

What this malware does

The package is published to the public npm registry under @pelmnaads/naads-common-logger with version 19999.0.1 — the canonical dependency-confusion pattern, where an abnormally high version is used to make npm's resolver prefer this public package over a private internal package of the same name. On npm install, a preinstall lifecycle script (preinstall.js:5-9) makes an HTTPS GET to h5nvwrz2815ubw84cpkwhezm5db9z1nq.b.mburpcollab.com with query parameters package=<npm_package_name>&hostname=<os.hostname()>, transmitting the installer's hostname off-host to a Burp Collaborator out-of-band interaction endpoint. The README states this is an authorized security test, but the code path and effect on an unsuspecting installer are identical to a hostile dependency-confusion attack: build hosts silently disclose their identity to a third-party domain during npm install, with no opt-in. Any build system that resolves this package (e.g., an internal Pelmorex pipeline expecting the private @pelmnaads/naads-common-logger) would leak hostname data.

Detection & response playbook

Malicious package
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for @pelmnaads/naads-common-logger (version 19999.0.1). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging @pelmnaads/naads-common-logger across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    Remove @pelmnaads/naads-common-logger 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If @pelmnaads/naads-common-logger 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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 blocks @pelmnaads/naads-common-logger 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.

Frequently asked questions
