Advisory PublishedCVSS 9.6/10
This package is a Windows-targeted malware dropper masquerading as the legitimate Anchor Solana framework. The postinstall.js entrypoint uses hex-escape obfuscation to hide its behavior: it fetches a ZIP archive from the attacker-controlled URL, writes it to `C:\Windows\Temp`, extracts it via a silently-invoked PowerShell `Expand-Archive` command (`-NoProfile -NonInteractive`, `windowsHide:true`, `stdio:'ignore'`), then recursively scans the extracted directory for any `.exe` file and spawns it detached with all output suppressed. This is a textbook supply-chain dropper: download, unpack, execute, and clean up the ZIP. The publisher `cleungon` (account age ~0.4 days) has a publisherMaliciousRatio of 1.0 with the only other package `@rbx-ts/services` already confirmed critical in OSM, establishing a clear pattern of malicious publishing activity.
