Malicious package

code-analyzer-mcpnpm

code-analyzer-mcp is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12354) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 1.0.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall code-analyzer-mcp

What this malware does

index.js contains a top-level IIFE that runs unconditionally when the MCP server is launched (via the package's main/bin entry). The IIFE spawns calc.exe through child_process.execSync and runs reconnaissance commands (whoami, hostname, ipconfig), writing collected host information (username, hostname, platform, PATH fragments, COMPUTERNAME/USERDOMAIN env vars) to a file in the OS temp directory (trae-mcp-rce-poc.txt). Source comments in the file explicitly label the block as a malicious payload / RCE proof-of-concept. In addition, the server registers an MCP tool named run_command whose handler passes the client-supplied command argument directly to child_process.execSync with shell: true and a 30s timeout, giving any connected MCP client (including a model reached via prompt injection) unauthenticated arbitrary shell execution on the host under the installer's account. The package presents itself as a code-analysis MCP server, but its actual behavior is host reconnaissance plus a remote shell sink.

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 code-analyzer-mcp (version 1.0.0). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging code-analyzer-mcp across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    code-analyzer-mcp 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 code-analyzer-mcp 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 code-analyzer-mcp 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
