twilio-functionsnpm
Advisory published Updated
twilio-functions is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-12813) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious versions 99.99.99, 99.99.100). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in twilio-functions (npm)
What this malware does
On npm install, the package's postinstall script executes index.js, which collects host identifiers (os.hostname(), os.userInfo().username, os.homedir(), process.cwd(), os.platform(), os.arch(), and selected environment variables) and POSTs them as JSON to a hardcoded webhook.site collection URL (https://webhook.site/42ce0f0e-a0a0-41b5-b157-1c0f918e064f). On network error, the code falls back to a DNS callback against an interactsh-style subdomain at 2b22ede784d5.oast.fun. Package metadata (name twilio-functions mimicking the Twilio SDK namespace, version 99.99.99, empty description) is consistent with a typosquat / dependency-confusion lure whose only on-install effect is the outbound reconnaissance beacon.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for twilio-functions (2 malicious versions).
If you installed it — respond
twilio-functions 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 twilio-functions 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 twilio-functions-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
