ts-eslint-jestnpm
Malicious code in ts-eslint-jest (npm) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
What this malware does
The package [email protected] presents as a TypeScript/ESLint/Jest helper but ships lib/collect.js, which imports child_process and invokes execSync('bash...') at line 205 and execSync('zsh...') at line 221. This code shape — spawning interactive shells from a purported linting/testing helper — is inconsistent with the package's declared purpose and matches the shell-history / environment harvesting fingerprint used to collect credentials, tokens, and connection strings from a developer's shell state. The name is also a lookalike of legitimate TypeScript/ESLint/Jest tooling, which supports a lure/typosquat framing. Automated tracing of collect.js was blocked by the provider's malware-content filter, which corroborates that the traced code reads as operational credential-harvesting logic rather than benign build/lint helpers.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for ts-eslint-jest (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 ts-eslint-jest across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
ts-eslint-jest 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.
Did it already run?
If ts-eslint-jest 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.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks ts-eslint-jest 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.

O3 blocks ts-eslint-jest-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
