Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall confluence-create-content

What this malware does

package.json declares a dependency whose key equals the package's own name (confluence-create-content) and whose value is a bare HTTPS URL, https://repo.securityctrl.com/confluence-create-content, instead of a registry version range. On npm install, npm fetches whatever bytes that URL returns and installs them, running any lifecycle scripts contained in them with no version pin and no integrity check. The shipped index.js is an inert stub, so the manifest URL is effectively the entire delivered payload. The self-named dependency shape also creates dependency-confusion pressure: any environment resolving this package name pulls content from the third-party host rather than the registry.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.

Detection & response playbook

Malicious package
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for confluence-create-content (version 30.0.0).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    Remove confluence-create-content from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.

  3. Did it already run?

    If confluence-create-content 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.

Frequently asked questions

No. confluence-create-content on npm has been identified as a malicious package (version 30.0.0 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.
