domains-billing-typesnpm
domains-billing-types is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-6980) that opens a backdoor for remote access (malicious version 99.91.1). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in domains-billing-types (npm)
What this malware does
[email protected] executes node index.js from its postinstall lifecycle script. On install, index.js reads os.hostname() and os.userInfo().username and embeds them as subdomain labels in a DNS A-record lookup to <hostname>.<username>.aiwm5lowso4vtjynsoije5q4rvxmlf94.oastify.com (Burp Suite Collaborator, an out-of-band interaction server). The DNS resolution transmits the installer's host and user identity to an attacker-controlled OAST endpoint at install time, without consent. The package has anonymous authorship, an empty description ("Billing!"), and no real functionality — the name and shape are consistent with a dependency-confusion probe against an internal package namespace, with the DNS beacon confirming any successful resolution.
The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'domains-billing-types' @ 99.91.1 (npm) as malicious.
It is considered malicious because:
- The package communicates with a domain associated with malicious activity.

Detection & response playbook
Backdoor / remote accessFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for domains-billing-types (version 99.91.1). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging domains-billing-types across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
domains-billing-types establishes remote access, so treat any host that installed it as fully compromised. Isolate the machine, remove the package, rotate all credentials it could reach, and rebuild from a trusted image rather than cleaning in place — a backdoor may have planted additional persistence.
Did it already run?
If domains-billing-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.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks domains-billing-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.
