What this malware does

Package name impersonates the legitimate weavedb-sdk; lib/index.js is a near-verbatim copy of that SDK's Arweave/Warp/EthCrypto class so the package functions as a drop-in substitute. package.json declares "preinstall": "./dist/runtime.node", directly executing a 976KB opaque ELF on every npm install. The.node extension is deceptive — legitimate Node native addons are loaded via require()/dlopen, not spawned as standalone executables. Strings recovered from the binary include HTTP/1.1, POST, DELETE, https://, USERPROFILE, LIBBPF_0.0 (eBPF), PTRACE, Ed25519, and RSA_PKCS1_ — capabilities (HTTP egress, kernel-level eBPF, anti-debug ptrace, home-directory enumeration, cryptographic operations) consistent with an info-stealer / C2 implant and unrelated to the package's advertised purpose. The binary ships without source, build system, or any documentation, and runs unconditionally with the installer's privileges at install time.

This package was compromised as part of the IronWorm campaign. This campaign executes a malicious binary payload during installation via a preinstall hook. The payload is a Rust-built infostealer that targets developer environments, scanning for and harvesting credentials related to cloud providers, object storage, databases, source-control, package registries, and AI developer tools. It also targets cryptocurrency wallets, specifically injecting a malicious JavaScript hook into the Exodus desktop wallet to capture passwords and recovery phrases. Furthermore, the malware exhibits worm-like behavior by stealing GitHub and NPM credentials to push malicious updates to the victim's repositories and publish trojanized packages, and it uses an eBPF-based kernel rootkit to hide its processes and network connections on Linux systems.

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 test-weavedb-sdk (version 1.1.1). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging test-weavedb-sdk across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    test-weavedb-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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If test-weavedb-sdk 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 test-weavedb-sdk 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

No. test-weavedb-sdk on npm has been identified as a malicious package (version 1.1.1 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.
