Advisory PublishedCVSS 9.6/10
This package is a cloud environment reconnaissance and credential theft tool. On install, postinstall.js executes a shell command chain via child_process.exec that probes IMDS endpoints for AWS (169.254.169.254), GCP (metadata.google.internal), Azure (169.254.169.254/metadata), Alibaba Cloud (100.100.100.200), and Tencent Cloud (metadata.tencentyun.com), harvesting instance IDs, MAC addresses, and IAM role names. It then fetches full AWS IAM security credentials and writes them to /tmp/.iam-creds before exfiltrating all collected data—including hostname, username, and IAM credentials—to the attacker-controlled OAST endpoint pzs5w7ntzhsnepwk564lyfdci3oucl0a.oastify.com. The Chinese-language comments explicitly describe this as a 'cloud vendor metadata detection version' (v11), indicating an iterative campaign targeting CI/CD pipelines and developer machines running in cloud environments.
