Which versions of mobiwaefhxc3 are malicious?

The following npm versions of mobiwaefhxc3 are flagged malicious: 1.0.0. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate mobiwaefhxc3 if I installed it?

mobiwaefhxc3 is a typosquat — you almost certainly intended a legitimately-named package. Remove mobiwaefhxc3, install the correct package, and rotate any secrets exposed during the install since post-install scripts may have already run.

I already installed mobiwaefhxc3 — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If mobiwaefhxc3 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.

Is mobiwaefhxc3 part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — mobiwaefhxc3 is associated with the IN-MAL-2026-019261 campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.

How do I find mobiwaefhxc3 across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for mobiwaefhxc3 (version 1.0.0). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging mobiwaefhxc3 across your stack and pipelines.

What this malware does

Published as part of a ClickFix-style fake-CAPTCHA phishing campaign documented by OX Security (see reference). The package's only file is index.html, declared as the npm "main" entry; package.json defines no preinstall/install/postinstall/prepare lifecycle script, so the payload does not execute at npm install time. index.html renders a fake Cloudflare Turnstile verification widget. An obfuscator.io-obfuscated inline script POSTs a hardcoded per-package "hostKey" to https://api.keyval.org/get, receives a base64-encoded IV:ciphertext pair, decrypts it client-side via the Web Crypto API (AES-CTR) using an embedded key to obtain a redirect URL, appends the visitor's original query-string parameters, and navigates the browser there via window.location.replace(). This "dead drop" design lets the operator change the phishing destination for every package sharing a hostKey without republishing to npm; OX Security observed keyval.org-served destinations including a typosquatted Microsoft login page and, at time of writing, a ChatGPT redirect. The package therefore does not attack the installing machine directly; it is used as a static file host on the npm CDN (e.g. unpkg/jsDelivr) so the index.html can be linked to and opened directly in a victim's browser as a phishing/ClickFix landing page. Published by npm user "johnvaldez9a" as part of a burst of near-identical single-purpose packages published between 2026-08-04 and 2026-08-24 that share this same fake-Turnstile-redirect page structure.

Typosquat

Find it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for mobiwaefhxc3 (version 1.0.0). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging mobiwaefhxc3 across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
mobiwaefhxc3 is a typosquat — you almost certainly intended a legitimately-named package. Remove mobiwaefhxc3, install the correct package, and rotate any secrets exposed during the install since post-install scripts may have already run.
Did it already run?
If mobiwaefhxc3 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 mobiwaefhxc3 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.
