oit-lib-oracle-utilnpm
oit-lib-oracle-util is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-15541) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 45.0.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in oit-lib-oracle-util (npm)
What this malware does
package.json declares a dependency whose key (oit-lib-oracle-util) matches this package's own name and whose value is a bare HTTPS URL — https://repo.securityctrl.com/oit-lib-oracle-util — instead of a registry version range. On npm install, npm fetches whatever bytes that URL returns at install time and installs them, running any lifecycle scripts inside the fetched artifact. The source is unpinned, has no integrity hash, and is unrelated to the npm registry; the host repo.securityctrl.com is not a known registry mirror and has no association with a declared publisher. The shipped index.js is an inert stub, so the manifest itself is the entire delivery mechanism. The self-referential name and implausibly high version (45.0.0) are consistent with a dependency-confusion lure designed to win resolution against an internal package of the same name.

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 oit-lib-oracle-util (version 45.0.0). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging oit-lib-oracle-util across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove oit-lib-oracle-util 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 oit-lib-oracle-util 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 oit-lib-oracle-util 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.
