Malicious code in v018-axios-cdntest (npm) Remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
What this malware does
Package impersonates axios v0.18.0 (index.js carries the genuine axios v0.18.0 | (c) 2018 by Matt Zabriskie header and sets window.axios={}, window.__cdn_package='[email protected]') but ships two malicious payloads. (1) index.js appends an IIFE that reads document.cookie and sends it via XMLHttpRequest GET to a hardcoded webhook.site endpoint (https://webhook.site/ef6e7978-f936-4664-b3ff-296a250e1735?c=<cookies>), firing on the page load event so any consumer loading this script via CDN or bundle leaks all accessible cookies to the attacker. (2) Sibling xmr-min.js is an in-browser Monero cryptojacker that constructs a Web Worker from a Blob and uses eval on dynamic JS to mine to wallet 44AFFq5kSiGBoZ4NMDwYtN18obc8AemS33DBLWs3H7otXft3XjrpDtQGv7SqSsaBYBb98uNbr2VBBEt7f2wfn3RVGQBEP3A via pool.supportxmr.com:4444. The package is intended to be loaded through jsdelivr (cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/v018-axios-cdntest@.../xmr-min.js), so any site embedding it leaks user cookies and burns visitors' CPU. The package's own description self-labels these payloads.

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 v018-axios-cdntest (4 malicious versions). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging v018-axios-cdntest across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
v018-axios-cdntest 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 v018-axios-cdntest 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 v018-axios-cdntest 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.
