Vulnetix · Advisory published July 3, 2026
This package is a confirmed malicious payload delivery vehicle. The file `lib/string/pathcase.js` — entirely misnamed for a path-casing utility — implements a staged remote code execution chain: it fetches content from `jsonkeeper.com` (a paste/JSON hosting service used as a malware staging server) via `axios.get`, passes the result to `new Function` / `Function.constructor` for dynamic execution, then spawns a detached Node.js child process with `stdio: 'ignore'` and `child.unref()` to persist the payload independently of the parent process. The publisher `golv5884` is a brand-new account (1 day old) with a publisherMaliciousRatio of 1.0 — every other package they have published (`chai-chain-dom`, `notifier-utils`) has already been confirmed malicious at critical severity in OSM. The package impersonates Jon Schlinkert's legitimate `utils` repository to establish false credibility.
