ogd-analyticsnpm
Advisory published Updated
ogd-analytics is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-5987) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 1.0.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in ogd-analytics (npm)
What this malware does
package.json declares a preinstall lifecycle script that runs automatically during npm install. The script executes hostname, whoami, and pwd, then uses curl to POST the combined output (current user, host name, and install directory) as a urlencoded info field to https://webhook.site/1ea0386f-dcc0-4f1b-bdbb-61732d6535fb/ogd-analytics. webhook.site is an anonymous request-bin service, not a publisher-controlled domain, and the beacon has no relation to any advertised analytics functionality. The behavior is unconditional installer-side reconnaissance — user identity, machine identity, and filesystem location are exfiltrated to a third-party collector on every install, providing an attacker the host inventory needed for follow-on targeting (dependency confusion, internal-build-system fingerprinting).

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for ogd-analytics (version 1.0.0).
If you installed it — respond
ogd-analytics 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 ogd-analytics 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.

Detect & block this
O3 blocks ogd-analytics-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
