What this malware does

Package name mimics Coinbase's internal cb-wallet-* namespace to capture dependency-confusion resolutions. On npm install (postinstall.js) and on require('cb-wallet-http') (index.js), the package issues an HTTPS GET to the hardcoded endpoint https://icy-cell-fb53.gh0stfqce25.workers.dev/poc, transmitting the package name and Node.js runtime version to a third-party Cloudflare Workers domain registered under a personal handle (gh0stfqce25.workers.dev) unrelated to Coinbase. The package's own description self-identifies as a 'RESERVED PLACEHOLDER — coordinated security-research namespace claim' with the repository github.com/gh0stfqce/npm-namespace-claims. Regardless of the author's stated research intent, any organization that installs this package via misconfigured registry resolution leaks host/build-topology identifiers to the operator of the worker without consent, fingerprinting which builds are vulnerable to dependency confusion against Coinbase's namespace.

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 cb-wallet-http (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 cb-wallet-http across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    cb-wallet-http 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 cb-wallet-http 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 cb-wallet-http 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
