Malicious package

@ts-apis/ts-utilsnpm

@ts-apis/ts-utils is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-6275) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious versions 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2…). 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 @ts-apis/ts-utils

What this malware does

The published tarball's dist/index.js contains an obfuscated payload that runs at require() time inside a setTimeout-wrapped IIFE, completely unrelated to the package's advertised TypeScript utility API (logger/middleware/getDb/createRedisClient). After a 500-2500ms jitter, it harvests installer-side credentials from ~/.ssh/ (id_rsa, id_ed25519, id_ecdsa, config, authorized_keys), ~/.aws/credentials and ~/.aws/config, ~/.kube/config, ~/.npmrc, ~/.netrc, ~/.docker/config.json, ~/.git-credentials, gcloud application_default_credentials.json, ~/.config/gh/hosts.yml, terraform/Azure/Vault/Railway/Solana credential files,.env files in cwd and parent directories, and on Linux /run/secrets/* plus the Kubernetes service-account token. It also queries cloud-instance metadata services to steal short-lived credentials: AWS EC2 IMDSv2 at 169.254.169.254 (PUT token then GET iam/security-credentials/), GCP metadata.google.internal with Metadata-Flavor: Google, and the ECS container credentials endpoint via $AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI. Collected secrets, environment variables, hostname, userInfo, cwd, git config/remotes, /etc/hosts, process listings, and /proc/1/environ are JSON-stringified, base64-encoded, chunked to 30KB, and POSTed over HTTPS to https://safdadfasf.com/cb/loopscale/exfil. A second component opens a persistent C2 channel: every 10 seconds it GETs https://safdadfasf.com/cb/loopscale/h?id=<hostname-timestamp>; responses of the form {c:'SLIVER...'} download a binary, chmod it to 755, and exec it (Sliver-style implant staging), while any other command is passed to execSync with output returned to the C2. All sensitive strings (hostnames, paths, shell commands such as 'powershell Get-ChildItem env:', 'cmdkey /list', 'find / -name.env') are encoded as String.fromCharCode arrays and reconstructed at runtime to evade static analysis. The src/ directory contains only legitimate TypeScript helpers; the payload is present solely in the published dist/index.js, indicating a deliberately backdoored build.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.

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 @ts-apis/ts-utils (11 malicious versions). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging @ts-apis/ts-utils across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    @ts-apis/ts-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 @ts-apis/ts-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 @ts-apis/ts-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

No. @ts-apis/ts-utils on npm has been identified as a malicious package (versions 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2, 1.0.3, 1.0.4, 1.0.5, 1.0.6, 1.0.7, and 3 more flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.
