Advisory PublishedCVSS 9.6/10
This package is a classic dropper trojan masquerading as a packing utility. On postinstall, index.js executes _fetch(), which downloads a platform-specific binary (WinService.exe on Windows, WinMetrics on Linux) from the C2 host sloth-antagonist.vercel.app — obfuscated via char-code arrays to evade static detection — writes it to a hidden app directory, and spawns it detached with suppressed I/O (windowsHide: true) so it survives the parent process and leaves no visible window. The legitimate-looking pack/unpack/checksum exports are cosmetic cover for the dropper payload. The publisher account (ioa2102) is a throwaway with zero prior packages, no repository, and no description — consistent with a burner account created for this campaign.
