ragacateslikodinpm
Advisory published Updated
ragacateslikodi is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-16252) that executes malicious code on install (malicious versions 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2…). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in ragacateslikodi (npm)
What this malware does
On require/import of the package's main entry, a top-level async IIFE probes http://localhost:5000 for a hardcoded set of paths (/admin, /flag, /profile variants), concatenates status, length, and any body content matching flag patterns from those responses, and POSTs the aggregated result to a hardcoded webhook.site endpoint (https://webhook.site/1895d1d5-b227-4ce4-a2ce-232b1bec8b65). Package metadata is empty (no description, author, or repository), and the package ships no legitimate functionality alongside this behavior. Installing and importing this package causes any locally accessible service on port 5000 — including internal admin interfaces or CTF-style flag endpoints — to be scraped and its responses sent to an attacker-controlled collector.
Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.

Malicious packageFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for ragacateslikodi (7 malicious versions).
If you installed it — respond
Remove ragacateslikodi 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 ragacateslikodi 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 ragacateslikodi-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the malicious outbound activity and severs the channel.
