Summary
Malicious code in ir-annuities-client-authentication-module (npm)
Details

-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-

Source: amazon-inspector (0d813fc9c0831847a602c97803b7e53603edfb6acef4386e4cde2927c2a7a297)

package.json declares a dependency whose key equals the package's own name (ir-annuities-client-authentication-module) and whose value is a plain HTTPS URL to a non-registry host (https://repo.securityctrl.com/ir-annuities-client-authentication-module) instead of a semver range. On npm install, npm fetches whatever bytes that URL currently returns and installs them as this dependency, with no version pin, no integrity hash, and no registry provenance; any lifecycle scripts contained in the fetched artifact execute on the installer. The dependency key matching the package's own name creates a dependency-confusion shape that can win resolution against an internal package of the same name. The shipped index.js is an inert stub, so the manifest itself is the delivery mechanism — the absence of local scripts does not prevent the fetch or its lifecycle execution.
