oa-crm-webapinpm
oa-crm-webapi is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-5745) that opens a backdoor for remote access (malicious version 9.9.99). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in oa-crm-webapi (npm)
What this malware does
[email protected] is a dependency-confusion payload squatting an internal-sounding package name. package.json declares a postinstall hook (node beacon.js) which fires automatically on npm install. beacon.js reads os.hostname() and transmits it to the attacker-controlled Burp Collaborator host yfhjhookbia8zov0q5hh772xroxfl69v.oastify.com via two channels: a DNS lookup of <nonce>.<hostname>.<collaborator-host> (out-of-band DNS exfil) and an HTTPS POST to the same host with the hostname in the body. The 9.9.99 version + generic 'internal placeholder' description is the canonical shape used to hijack private package names by overriding the legitimate internal registry resolution. A successful install both proves code execution on the installer and leaks the internal hostname to an external attacker.

Detection & response playbook
Backdoor / remote accessFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for oa-crm-webapi (version 9.9.99). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging oa-crm-webapi across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
oa-crm-webapi establishes remote access, so treat any host that installed it as fully compromised. Isolate the machine, remove the package, rotate all credentials it could reach, and rebuild from a trusted image rather than cleaning in place — a backdoor may have planted additional persistence.
Did it already run?
If oa-crm-webapi 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 oa-crm-webapi 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.
