internallib_v811npm
Advisory published Updated
internallib_v811 is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-19230) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 1.0.1). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in internallib_v811 (npm)
What this malware does
package.json declares the dependency internallib-helper with a source of http://10.0.77.5:8000/internallib-helper-1.0.1.tgz — a plain-HTTP tarball URL on a private IP, not a registry version range. On npm install, npm fetches whatever bytes that host serves and installs them, executing any lifecycle scripts inside the fetched tarball, with no version pin and no integrity check. The transport is cleartext HTTP, so any party able to intercept traffic to 10.0.77.5:8000 can substitute the delivered archive. The shipped index.js is a trivial stub, so the manifest line itself is the install-time code-delivery mechanism. The dependency name internallib-helper closely mirrors the package's own name internallib_v811, matching an internal-package / dependency-confusion lure shape.

Detection & response playbook
Malicious packageFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for internallib_v811 (version 1.0.1).
If you installed it — respond
Remove internallib_v811 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.
Did it already run?
If internallib_v811 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.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks internallib_v811-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the malicious outbound activity and severs the channel.
