pf23727npm
pf23727 is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-16338) 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 pf23727 (npm)
What this malware does
index.js is the package main and runs as an IIFE on require()/import. It reads document.cookie, slices document.body.innerHTML, and issues fetch('/profile', {credentials: 'include'}) to capture an authenticated response, then transmits the concatenated data via navigator.sendBeacon/fetch to a hardcoded collector at https://webhook.site/c4e39647-bfb8-47ef-b6d4-a112aacc6cd1. The destination is an unrelated third-party request-inspection service used as an exfiltration sink; the package has no declared legitimate purpose consistent with reading cookies or authenticated profile content. Behavior is a session-cookie and credentialed-response exfiltration payload rather than a functional library.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for pf23727 (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 pf23727 across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
pf23727 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 pf23727 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 pf23727 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.
