The shipped index.js is empty (module.exports = {}), so the only effect of installing this package is the install-time beacon. The package name and structure are consistent with a dependency-confusion probe targeting internal easypanel-* names.\n","modified":"2026-09-04T04:30:05.849593085Z","published":"2026-09-04T03:46:00Z","database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"import_time":"2026-09-04T04:21:21.022803666Z","modified_time":"2026-09-04T03:46:00Z","sha256":"1675d70b09ce1f826b69fbfcee3cf56a81c49c37fa4fb4bdafd4f72b736880f8","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["1.0.0"],"id":"IN-MAL-2026-019454"}]},"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/easypanel-client/v/1.0.0"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"easypanel-client","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/easypanel-client"},"versions":["1.0.0"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"name":"Embedded Malicious Code","cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature."}],"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"sha256":"999a024d3019c30f1da7b363b83a69454d9b593b6e619647f1e65a36dab724a2","tlsh":"a81127b0d160927d056163c0645a46929277dfd130e3c9c0682a66455fd26d20bf38fd","path":"preinstall.js"},{"tlsh":"53c08c380a02b8722ac08bd5a917888861fe1611506aac04c5d3142944963da96af20b","path":"package.json","sha256":"0d782d4d441d4994a22abb9d5d57c868ca563e47f320445db353bc746ae24676"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"easypanel-client-1.0.0.tgz","hashes":{"sha512_sri":"sha512-Td0L+XGIuYL3qhXZ7fe7H3Jbanoulca3zPw33M/mN+aauJONor7FlSwZ0k5bVI164uTbGKbauq5YJ6dV7WIlAg==","sha1":"b4a46fdfe8272c7c15005a82433ea142d820dd1f"}}]},"source":"https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/main/osv/malicious/npm/easypanel-client/MAL-2026-15896.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
