llm-traces-appnpm
Malicious code in llm-traces-app (npm) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
What this malware does
On npm install, the package's preinstall lifecycle hook runs node index.js, which collects host identity (os.hostname(), os.userInfo(), homedir, DNS servers, cwd) and reads the installer's /etc/passwd and /etc/hosts, then HTTPS POSTs the combined payload to ltiyq4zyhrs88zgp5lef9hbec5i46uuj.oastify.com — a Burp Collaborator (OAST) subdomain controlled by the package publisher. The exfiltration fires automatically on default install with no user interaction. Reading /etc/passwd enumerates the installer's local user accounts; the OAST destination provides the publisher with arbitrary out-of-band data capture. This is a textbook dependency-confusion / supply-chain exfiltration beacon.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for llm-traces-app (version 1.0.1). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging llm-traces-app across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
llm-traces-app 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.
Did it already run?
If llm-traces-app 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 llm-traces-app 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.
