{"id":"GHSA-9mjp-gv34-3jcf","summary":"Malicious Package in aasync","details":"All versions of `aasync` typosquatted a popular package of similar name and tracked users who had installed the incorrect package. The package uploaded information to a remote server including: name of the downloaded package, name of the intended package, the Node version and whether the process was running as sudo. There is no further compromise.\n\n\n## Recommendation\n\nRemove the package from your dependencies and always ensure package names are typed correctly upon installation.","modified":"2021-10-01T13:55:21Z","published":"2020-09-02T18:37:35Z","database_specific":{"severity":"CRITICAL","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2020-08-31T18:37:53Z","nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-506"]},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/advisories/844"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"aasync","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/aasync"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2020/09/GHSA-9mjp-gv34-3jcf/GHSA-9mjp-gv34-3jcf.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
