Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall simple-date-formatter-util-10

What this malware does

On npm install, package.json's postinstall hook launches a detached bash reverse shell over /dev/tcp to 124.221.154.135:4444, giving remote interactive control of the installer's host. A companion postinstall.js reads the installer's ~/.ssh directory listing along with os.userInfo() and platform data and POSTs the collected data over HTTPS to the same host 124.221.154.135. Both mechanisms fire automatically at install time with no user interaction and provide the operator persistent remote access plus credential-material reconnaissance.

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 simple-date-formatter-util-10 (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 simple-date-formatter-util-10 across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    simple-date-formatter-util-10 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 simple-date-formatter-util-10 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 simple-date-formatter-util-10 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.
