rtc-integration-frontend-sdknpm
Advisory published Updated
rtc-integration-frontend-sdk is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-10129) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 99.9.0). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in rtc-integration-frontend-sdk (npm)
What this malware does
[email protected] registers a postinstall lifecycle hook ("postinstall": "node index.js") that fires automatically on npm install. index.js collects installer host reconnaissance — os.hostname(), userInfo().username, platform/arch, local network interface addresses, the public IP resolved via a call to https://api.ipify.org, the current working directory, and the package name — and POSTs the collected data to a hardcoded Discord webhook at discord.com/api/webhooks/. The package name and 99.9.0 version shape are consistent with a typosquat/version-bump lure; installing the package causes unconditional install-time exfiltration of host identifiers to an attacker-controlled endpoint.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for rtc-integration-frontend-sdk (version 99.9.0).
If you installed it — respond
rtc-integration-frontend-sdk 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 rtc-integration-frontend-sdk 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 rtc-integration-frontend-sdk-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
