tivo-codelib-anpm

[email protected] is an empty-stub npm package whose index.js exports module.exports = {} and whose package metadata (description, author) is blank. Its only effect on installers is its sole runtime dependency, which is declared in package.json as a direct HTTPS URL rather than a registry version: "ltidisafe": "https://ltidi.storage.googleapis.com/depenconf/ltidisafe-2.8.1.tgz". On npm install, npm fetches that tarball from a Google Cloud Storage bucket (ltidi.storage.googleapis.com/depenconf/) that does not correspond to any reputable publisher, installs it into the consumer's node_modules, and runs any lifecycle scripts it contains. The URL is not hash-pinned, so the bucket owner can swap the tarball contents at any time and ship arbitrary code to every installer. The package name pattern (-codelib-a), the unusually high version (99.9.1), the empty metadata, and the off-registry GCS dependency together match the dependency-confusion smuggler/loader shape: a hollow lure whose install resolves to attacker-controlled code hosted outside the registry.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.
