What this malware does

[email protected] ships src/poc/index.js which uses child_process.exec to run a shell pipeline that collects host reconnaissance data (hostname, current working directory, whoami, a package identifier) and the public egress IP fetched from https://ifconfig.me, concatenates the values, and exfiltrates them via nslookup as a subdomain label of d9bd62bu6g119svvav70o3p9tymtrxkoj.oast.site — an Interactsh (project-discovery) out-of-band callback domain. The generic package name combined with the anomalous 4.999.0 version bump is the canonical dependency-confusion research/attack shape, where a high version number is published to a public registry to override a private internal package and cause the recon payload to fire in the victim's build.

Detection & response playbook

Credential / info stealer
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for leviosa86-test (version 4.999.0).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    leviosa86-test 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 leviosa86-test 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.

Frequently asked questions

No. leviosa86-test on npm has been identified as a malicious package (version 4.999.0 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.
