Which versions of atlasora-config are malicious?

The following npm versions of atlasora-config are flagged malicious: 1.0.0. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate atlasora-config if I installed it?

atlasora-config 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 atlasora-config — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If atlasora-config 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 atlasora-config part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — atlasora-config is associated with the IN-MAL-2026-007100 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 atlasora-config across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for atlasora-config (version 1.0.0).

Advisory published Jun 20, 2026Updated Jun 20, 2026

Immediate action

Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.

npm uninstall atlasora-config

What this malware does

The package declares a postinstall hook in package.json ("postinstall": "node install.js") that auto-executes install.js on every npm install. install.js imports https, fs, os, and child_process; collects host identity via os.hostname() and os.userInfo() (line 16, 18); reads filesystem state with fs.existsSync (lines 53, 62, 83); shells out via execSync (line 77); and POSTs the collected data over an https.request to a remote endpoint (lines 96, 104, 113). The combination of host/user identity collection, filesystem probing, command execution, and outbound HTTPS POST inside a postinstall script is the canonical install-time exfiltration shape. Installing the package causes the installer's machine identity and environment data to be transmitted to a remote endpoint without consent.
