router-processornpm
router-processor is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-10453) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 1.5.2). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in router-processor (npm)
What this malware does
[email protected] exposes a getPlugin function that assembles the URL https://svganchordev.net/icons/107 from split constants (protocol, separator, domain, path), fetches a JSON response, and passes the credits field to new Function(...) which is then invoked with a context object exposing require, process, Buffer, and other Node.js internals. This executes arbitrary attacker-controlled JavaScript with full Node privileges in the caller's process. The package declares dependencies on DPAPI bindings (Windows credential decryption), better-sqlite3, and node-machine-id, which are consistent with an infostealer loader capable of decrypting browser credential stores. The package's identity is inconsistent: package.json describes a router processor while the README advertises a Polymarket SDK, and neither matches the observed behavior of fetching remote code from an SVG-themed cover-story domain. The URL split-construction and the misleading credits/getPlugin naming are deliberate evasion of casual review.

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 router-processor (version 1.5.2). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging router-processor across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
router-processor 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 router-processor 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 router-processor 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.
