Malicious package

cryptodao-typesnpm

cryptodao-types is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-5970) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 99.99.99). 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 cryptodao-types

What this malware does

On npm install, the package's postinstall script (recon.js) harvests installer-side secrets and POSTs them to attacker-controlled webhook endpoints. The script collects hostname, username, cwd, and roughly 40 named environment variables including AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, NPM_TOKEN, GITLAB_ACCESS_TOKEN, SSH_PRIVATE_KEY, PRIVATE_KEY, MNEMONIC, SEED_PHRASE, and DB_PASSWORD. It also reads .env and .env.production files from the current working directory, parent directories, /, /app, and /root, and enumerates /builds and gitlab-runner directories. The collected payload is then sent via HTTPS to webhook.site/d6d18927-e513-4df7-b019-58bfc64fe0dd and enqoojbegdvxj.x.pipedream.net with rejectUnauthorized: false to bypass TLS-inspecting corporate proxies. The package name combined with version 99.99.99 and the internal-sounding description is consistent with a dependency-confusion attack targeting an organization's internal CI builds.

The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'cryptodao-types' @ 99.99.99 (npm) as malicious.

It is considered malicious because:

  • The package communicates with a domain associated with malicious activity.

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 cryptodao-types (version 99.99.99). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging cryptodao-types across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    cryptodao-types 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 cryptodao-types 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 cryptodao-types 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
