Malicious package

@siriusbeyond/utilsnpm

@siriusbeyond/utils is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-16322) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 99.0.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall @siriusbeyond/utils

What this malware does

Package @siriusbeyond/[email protected] declares both preinstall and postinstall scripts that execute callback.js on npm install. callback.js collects host reconnaissance (hostname, username, platform, cwd, home directory, UID, CI/cloud fingerprints) and enumerates process.env keys matching credential regexes (/token/i, /secret/i, /key/i, /password/i, /auth/i, /aws/i, /azure/i, /npm/i, /git/i, /docker/i, /registry/i, /artifactory/i, /nexus/i, /credential/i), taking up to 20 matches, and POSTs the collected payload via https.request to api.telegram.org /bot<token>/sendMessage using a hardcoded Telegram bot token (8605555117) and chat id (1064260758). The version number 99.0.0 and the exfiltration behavior are consistent with a dependency-confusion attack against an internal @siriusbeyond scope. The activity fires automatically on default npm install with no user action.

Detection & response playbook

Credential / info stealer
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for @siriusbeyond/utils (version 99.0.0). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging @siriusbeyond/utils across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    @siriusbeyond/utils 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 @siriusbeyond/utils 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 @siriusbeyond/utils 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
