Advisory PublishedCVSS 8.8/10
This package is a credential-theft and exfiltration loader masquerading as an OpenZeppelin-related dependency, with the install hooks running `index.js` on both preinstall and postinstall. The code explicitly harvests `process.env`, `.ssh/id_rsa`, `.ssh/id_ed25519`, `.gitconfig`, `.aws/credentials`, `.kube/config`, `.npmrc`, and `.env` files, then sends the collected data to a `webhook.site` endpoint from a detached background process that survives the install window. The attacker model is a supply-chain operator stealing developer secrets and environment tokens during npm installation, and the stealthy `spawn(process.execPath, ['-e', src], { detached: true, stdio: 'ignore' })` plus delayed sender shows deliberate evasion. The package metadata is also burner-like (`missing-description`, `no-repository`, `metadata-minimal`), reinforcing that this is not a legitimate library behavior.
