Malicious package

trapp-check-logsnpm

trapp-check-logs is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12286) that typosquats a legitimate package to trick installs (malicious version 20.1.9). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.

Malicious code in trapp-check-logs (npm)

Immediate action
Remove the package, then rotate any secrets the build/runtime could reach.
npm uninstall trapp-check-logs

What this malware does

On require of the package, index.js loads bridge.js which selects a platform-specific payload path, fetches bytes over HTTPS from string-concatenation-obfuscated hosts (oob-worker.cf99-9b3.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf102-baf.workers.dev, oob-worker.cf101-adf.workers.dev) assembled at runtime via array-join fragments, writes them to /tmp or %TEMP% under disguised names such as.cache<rand> and dotnet_diag_<rand>.exe, chmods 0755, and spawns them detached via /bin/sh -c or cmd.exe /c start /b. If the HTTPS mirrors fail, _bridge.js falls back to a DNS TXT-record channel against tin.dl.well1.site, tina.dl.well1.site, ldr.dl.well1.site, and win.dl.well1.site, querying c.<domain> for a chunk count and then <i>.<domain> for base64 fragments that are concatenated, decoded, written to disk and executed as a native binary. The package's README advertises only a trivial in-process logger; the hostname obfuscation, per-OS payload selection, hidden temp staging with system-tool-mimicking names, detached spawning, and DNS-tunneled code delivery are exclusively attack behaviors and produce full-host code execution on any consumer that installs or requires this package.

Detection & response playbook

Typosquat
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for trapp-check-logs (version 20.1.9). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging trapp-check-logs across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    trapp-check-logs is a typosquat — you almost certainly intended a legitimately-named package. Remove trapp-check-logs, install the correct package, and rotate any secrets exposed during the install since post-install scripts may have already run.

  3. Did it already run?

    If trapp-check-logs 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 trapp-check-logs 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
