@wizloft/harness-contextnpm
@wizloft/harness-context is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-14286) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 0.1.1-alpha.3). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in @wizloft/harness-context (npm)
What this malware does
dist/index.js (the package's declared main) contains a heavily obfuscated obfuscator.io-style IIFE appended after the legitimate context-service code. On import, the payload stashes global.r = require and global.m = module, then issues HTTPS requests to an Ethereum public RPC endpoint (h.drpc.org) and a block-explorer account API to read state from contract 0xa322E5f3..., using that state to resolve a next-stage URL that is fetched and executed in-process. The obfuscated string array (~303 entries via a rotated decoder) hides drpc.org, ?module=ac, POST, application/json, Mozilla/5., and the contract address. This is the EtherHiding loader pattern: attacker-controlled contract state serves as a mutable pointer to arbitrary code executed in the installer/consumer process at require time. Behavior does not match the package's advertised purpose of a small typed capability contract.

Detection & response playbook
Malicious packageFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for @wizloft/harness-context (version 0.1.1-alpha.3). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging @wizloft/harness-context across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove @wizloft/harness-context 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.
Did it already run?
If @wizloft/harness-context 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.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks @wizloft/harness-context 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.
