alloy-graphqlnpm
alloy-graphql is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-16063) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 1.0.1). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in alloy-graphql (npm)
What this malware does
package.json declares a preinstall hook that runs index.js on npm install. The script collects hostname, username, home directory, DNS servers, current working directory, and package.json contents, and reads /etc/passwd and /etc/hosts from the installer's host. The collected data is HTTPS-POSTed to a hardcoded Burp Collaborator subdomain at ipbtwv9063nc5hvhodh0s4u9x03rrhf6.oastify.com. The package has no advertised functionality beyond this exfiltration payload.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for alloy-graphql (version 1.0.1). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging alloy-graphql across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
alloy-graphql 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.
Did it already run?
If alloy-graphql 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 alloy-graphql 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.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks alloy-graphql-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
