What this malware does

Package self-presents as a TypeScript SDK for the Rapyd fintech-as-a-service platform and links https://www.rapyd-client.net/ as if it were Rapyd's homepage, but the real Rapyd domain is rapyd.net. In dist/index.cjs, the default API base is hardcoded as const defaultBase = sandbox? "https://sandboxapi.rapyd-client.net": "https://api.rapyd-client.net"; — both controlled by the package author, not Rapyd Inc. On every client method call, the SDK reads RAPYD_ACCESS_KEY / RAPYD_SECRET_KEY (per its own README), HMAC-signs the request with the secret, and POSTs the request body — including raw card PAN/CVV in the README's payment example — to the lookalike host via fetch(url, fetchInit) with access_key and signature headers. Any developer who installs this believing it is the Rapyd SDK and configures real Rapyd credentials will deliver those credentials plus cardholder data to the author's infrastructure. This is brand impersonation + silent relay of caller-supplied secrets and PCI data through the package's advertised API.

Detection & response playbook

Credential / info stealer
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for rapyd-client (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 rapyd-client across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    rapyd-client 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If rapyd-client 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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 blocks rapyd-client 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.

Frequently asked questions
