{"id":"MAL-2026-17871","summary":"Malicious code in @mntv-analysis/workspaces-components (npm)","details":"npm user 'conx3993' published this package in a dependency confusion campaign. It squats a name that looks like an internal package and uses version 65.11.3 so misconfigured resolvers pick it over the real one. Version 0.0.0-stage is an empty placeholder. A 'preinstall' hook runs 'index.js', which poses as an IP geolocation helper. On install it sends an HTTPS GET to attacker-controlled host realwbx.com (/ip.php?ip=8.8.8.8) with a hard-coded 'Authorization' value ('920ff204acf77aa813059be4f3141900') unique to this package, then discards the response. The token tells the operator which internal package name the victim installed, and the request reveals the victim's public egress IP.","modified":"2026-10-14T06:15:04.174789278Z","published":"2026-10-13T00:00:00Z","database_specific":{"iocs":{"urls":["https://realwbx.com/ip.php?ip=8.8.8.8"],"domains":["realwbx.com"],"files":[{"digests":{"sha256":"b7477c6ee6ae70b68574b8bb57d64a2fe2c3f331f6c4ea2be7dc755dddc2b5a7"},"note":"Preinstall beacon to realwbx.com in version 65.11.3.","paths":["index.js"],"source":"PACKAGE_ARCHIVE"}]}},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mntv-analysis/workspaces-components"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"@mntv-analysis/workspaces-components","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/%40mntv-analysis/workspaces-components"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"name":"Embedded Malicious Code","cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature."}],"source":"https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/main/osv/malicious/npm/@mntv-analysis/workspaces-components/MAL-2026-17871.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","credits":[{"name":"SafeDep","contact":["https://safedep.io"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
