jagprojectnpm
jagproject is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-13402) that executes malicious code on install (malicious versions 28.1.0, 28.2.0, 28.3.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in jagproject (npm)
What this malware does
The package (a Baileys-family WhatsApp library fork) contains char-code-obfuscated destination strings in lib/Socket/messages-send.js at lines 425 and 436. The byte arrays passed to String.fromCharCode decode to the URL https://fiora.nixel.my.id/, a hardcoded third-party host reconstructed at runtime rather than appearing as a plain string literal. The URL is embedded on the message-send code path, meaning normal use of the library's messaging API routes caller-owned session data through an author-controlled endpoint that is deliberately concealed via char-code obfuscation. Obfuscated destinations in a messaging library's send path have no legitimate purpose and match the covert-relay pattern seen in compromised Baileys forks.

Detection & response playbook
Malicious packageFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for jagproject (3 malicious versions). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging jagproject across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove jagproject 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 jagproject 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 jagproject 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.
