Advisory PublishedCVSS 9.6/10
Vulnetix · Advisory published September 4, 2026
The package's preinstall lifecycle script runs automatically on npm install and collects installer identity (os.hostname(), os.userInfo().username, process.cwd()) along with the names of CI-related environment variables. The collected data is JSON-serialized, base64url-encoded, chunked into DNS label form, and exfiltrated to a hardcoded third-party out-of-band collector at *.oob.lyomeri.com via both a dns.lookup() call and an HTTP GET to easypanel-app.daco3v4q6f49egu1ds1gwjnsjb88s5kcp.oob.lyomeri.com. The name mimics the legitimate Easypanel project and the shape (preinstall + host/username/cwd + OOB DNS+HTTP beacon to a per-package subdomain) is a dependency-confusion reconnaissance beacon, disclosing installer identity and internal-package-name existence to a third party regardless of any 'benign canary' self-label. Judge assessment: This is a dependency-confusion reconnaissance beacon: the attacker model is a package author mimicking Easypanel to collect installer identity and signal package presence to an out-of-band collector on install. The preinstall hook in `preinstall.js` gathers `os.hostname()`, `os.userInfo().username`, `process.cwd()`, and CI-related env names, then base64url-encodes and transmits them via both `dns.lookup()` and `http.request()` to `*.oob.lyomeri.com`. The self-described "canário benigno" comment does not match the behavior, because the code still exfiltrates data to a hardcoded third-party domain and runs automatically through `"preinstall":"node preinstall.js"`. The OSV advisory is corroborated by the actual entrypoint and IOCs, so this should be treated as malicious.
