Which versions of css-txedrf-polyfill are malicious?

The following npm versions of css-txedrf-polyfill are flagged malicious: 1.0.0. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate css-txedrf-polyfill if I installed it?

css-txedrf-polyfill 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 css-txedrf-polyfill — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If css-txedrf-polyfill 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 css-txedrf-polyfill part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — css-txedrf-polyfill is associated with the IN-MAL-2026-021020 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 css-txedrf-polyfill across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for css-txedrf-polyfill (version 1.0.0).

What this malware does

thunderboltRegistry.js executes an IIFE at require time that runs OS reconnaissance commands (id, whoami, uname -a, ifconfig/ip addr, cat /etc/hosts) via child_process.execSync, URL-encodes the output together with hostname, node version, platform, and pid, and POSTs/GETs each result via fetch to the hardcoded endpoint http://dxpoc.gt.tc/callback.php/bb8968d0f67000433bf7005dd5ad2d1f over plain HTTP. The package's exported module names (thunderboltRegistry, siteAssetsRegistry, documentManagementRegistry, editorRegistry, corvidRegistry) impersonate Wix thunderbolt internal registry modules and the manifest references static.parastorage.com URLs, consistent with a dependency-confusion lure aimed at a private Wix namespace. Any consumer that requires one of these modules triggers the reconnaissance and exfiltration to the attacker-controlled host.
