Malicious code in @access-risk/browser-remedy-react (npm) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
What this malware does
On npm install, postinstall.js executes automatically and collects host identity and environment details using os.hostname(), process.cwd(), and filesystem reads, base64-encodes the data via Buffer.from(...).toString('base64'), and exfiltrates it through both DNS lookups (require('dns')) and HTTPS requests (require('https')). The dual-channel base64 exfiltration shape (DNS tunneling plus HTTPS POST) combined with collection of system identifiers is the canonical install-time data-theft fingerprint and provides direct attacker benefit: any machine running npm install for this package leaks identifying information to an external destination automatically, before the user has reviewed any package code.
