Vulnetix · Advisory published June 7, 2026
The package masquerades as an Ethereum utility library but contains a clearly visible two-stage backdoor in index.js. On first require(), an IIFE executes: it fingerprints the environment (macOS-only, skips CI), writes a cache file to ~/.cache/.nyx-npm/e to prevent re-execution, then after a randomized 30–90 second delay decodes the C2 URL `https://k7xm9q.xyz` from base64 (`aHR0cHM6Ly9rN3htOXEueHl6`) and (Stage 1) beacons victim username, hostname, and a session ID to `/api/clickfix-callback`, then (Stage 2) fetches and pipes a remote payload directly to `/bin/bash` via `curl -sSfL | /bin/bash`. Both child processes are spawned detached with `stdio: 'ignore'` and `unref()`-ed to survive parent exit. The attacker model is a supply-chain implant targeting macOS developers in the Ethereum/Web3 ecosystem, delivering a remote-code-execution loader with sandbox evasion and persistence via cache-file deduplication.
