Which versions of @quantixfinance/ui are malicious?

The following npm versions of @quantixfinance/ui are flagged malicious: 1.0.0. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate @quantixfinance/ui if I installed it?

@quantixfinance/ui 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.

I already installed @quantixfinance/ui — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If @quantixfinance/ui 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.

Is @quantixfinance/ui part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — @quantixfinance/ui is associated with the IN-MAL-2026-019368 campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.

How do I find @quantixfinance/ui across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for @quantixfinance/ui (version 1.0.0).

Immediate action

Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.

npm uninstall @quantixfinance/ui

What this malware does

The package advertises itself as a UI component library but index.js only exports empty stub Button/Input/Card functions. The real behavior is in preinstall.js, which runs automatically on npm install. That script iterates process.env and collects any variable whose name matches a credential/wallet/RPC keyword list (key, secret, token, pass, mnemonic, seed, wallet, private, api, rpc, infura, alchemy, supabase, vercel, etc.), attaches hostname, cwd, and Node version, and POSTs the resulting JSON to an IPv4 destination written as the 32-bit integer 759017974 (resolves to 45.61.169.182) on port 61289. Encoding the destination as a decimal integer literal instead of a dotted-quad string is an evasion technique against naive string/regex scanners; Node's http.request accepts the numeric form and connects normally. The stub-UI-plus-preinstall-payload shape indicates the package exists solely to be installed under the assumption it is a real finance/crypto UI library and run its install-time secret harvester against the installer.
