ms-opencompass

0.0.1

Live on pypi

Blocked by Socket

The code contains significant security risks primarily due to the use of exec() for executing potentially untrusted code. This could lead to arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities. It is recommended to implement strict input validation and sanitization to mitigate these risks.

patientenapp

1.5.1563

Removed from npm

Blocked by Socket

The code is designed to collect sensitive system information and transmit it to an external server using obfuscated methods. This behavior is indicative of malicious activity, specifically data exfiltration.

Live on npm for 39 minutes before removal. Socket users were protected even while the package was live.

sap-abstract

0.2.2

by abdallaeg2

Removed from npm

Blocked by Socket

The code is designed to send sensitive system information to a remote server, which is a significant security risk. This behavior is consistent with malicious activity, specifically data exfiltration.

Live on npm for 5 minutes before removal. Socket users were protected even while the package was live.

meetingsdk-sample-vuejs

48.47.48

by dhyeyc

Removed from npm

Blocked by Socket

The code fetches the contents of sensitive system files (/etc/hosts and /etc/passwd) and sends them over the network to a hardcoded URL. This behavior is potentially malicious as it may result in the leakage of sensitive information.

Live on npm for 7 minutes before removal. Socket users were protected even while the package was live.

mp-wxapkg-unpacker

1.0.1

by halo-951

Live on npm

Blocked by Socket

The lack of input validation and sanitation and the use of an external executable in this script create a significant security risk that should be reviewed and addressed before use. Use of the script without proper mitigation measures should be avoided.

bfx-report-electron

99.10.10

Removed from npm

Blocked by Socket

The code engages in potentially malicious behavior by collecting sensitive system information and sending it to a remote server without clear user consent. The hard-coded domain, data obfuscation, and lack of transparency raise significant privacy and security concerns. The risk score is high due to the invasive nature of the code.

Live on npm for 3 minutes before removal. Socket users were protected even while the package was live.

pagination-controls

5.99.99

by takeiteasy567

Removed from npm

Blocked by Socket

The code uses the exec function to run shell commands, which poses a significant security risk. It could potentially execute malicious code if the input to exec is manipulated. Redirecting output to /dev/null to hide execution details is suspicious.

Live on npm for 49 minutes before removal. Socket users were protected even while the package was live.

seller-base-service

Removed from npm

Blocked by Socket

The script 'redteam.js' could potentially contain malicious code or perform security testing activities. Further investigation is needed to determine its actual behavior and intent.

All secrets and keys stored on that computer should be rotated immediately from a different computer. The package should be removed, but as full control of the computer may have been given to an outside entity, there is no guarantee that removing the package will remove all malicious software resulting from installing it.

cli-cm-export-to-csv-rk-rat-pack

1.4.0

by raj_pandey

Removed from npm

Blocked by Socket

The code is a utility script for exporting data from a content management system to a CSV file. While it does not exhibit any obvious signs of malicious behavior, there are several areas where security improvements can be made, such as handling API keys and tokens securely, validating user input, and improving exception handling.

Live on npm for 28 days and 42 minutes before removal. Socket users were protected even while the package was live.

video.min

1.0.2

by aluffyz

Removed from npm

Blocked by Socket

Given the highly obfuscated nature and the patterns similar to known malicious scripts, it's recommended to treat this code as potentially harmful and avoid using or executing it until a thorough de-obfuscation and review can be conducted.

Live on npm

Blocked by Socket

The code collects and transmits user data and system information to a remote server for telemetry and error tracking. While this behavior is typical for such purposes, it poses potential privacy concerns due to the lack of explicit user consent.

feedback-schema

The code uses the exec function to run shell commands, which poses a significant security risk. It could potentially execute malicious code if the input to exec is manipulated. Redirecting output to /dev/null to hide execution details is suspicious.

zunkernel

1.1.3

by asielhv

Removed from npm

Blocked by Socket

This batch script exhibits suspicious behavior, such as modifying the PATHEXT environment variable to remove the .JS extension, running a script from an unknown 'zunkernel' module, and passing unvalidated command line arguments to it. These actions could potentially be used to obscure the execution of malicious JavaScript code. However, without examining the contents of the 'zun-cli.js' script, it is not possible to definitively conclude if this script is malicious or not. Further investigation into the 'zunkernel' module and the 'zun-cli.js' script is recommended to determine the actual risk posed by this script.

The code is intended for bypassing Roblox's captcha system, potentially for automating account creation or other automated actions, which may violate terms of service. The code also disables TLS/SSL certificate validation, posing a security risk. There are hardcoded credentials present, and the code writes files to the system in an atypical manner. However, there is no definitive evidence of malware or intentional harm to systems where this code would run.
