How do I remediate confx1789550882 if I installed it?

confx1789550882 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 confx1789550882 — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If confx1789550882 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 confx1789550882 part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — confx1789550882 is associated with the IN-MAL-2026-020134 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 confx1789550882 across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

What this malware does

The package's main file index.js is an IIFE that, when loaded in a browser same-origin context (e.g. via unpkg), reads location.href and document.cookie, fetches authenticated endpoints such as /profile, /admin, /dev, /flag, and /me with credentials:'include', and POSTs the responses along with a matched flag pattern to the hardcoded webhook https://webhook.site/04d98207-c947-4938-9f0c-f92feae051cb/. package.json contains only a 'ctf' description with no author or repository, and the single shipped artifact is this exfiltration payload. Comments in the file describe it as an unpkg-hosted exfil payload.
