Summary
Malicious code in com.db.autobahn.notification-center-electron (npm)
Details

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

Source: amazon-inspector (4ae376efc666d8e07f356f9f3cbafe2dfc99e221a150ff96548db4a2b91bb452)

package.json declares preinstall and postinstall lifecycle scripts that automatically run curl on npm install to send installer identity (whoami, hostname, $PWD, timestamp) as query-string parameters to a long-random-label third-party host (da9nfhavbsgte1dqq8fgrbb7fyfekc37i.cyowl.com) over plain HTTP. The package name (com.db.autobahn.notification-center-electron) and implausibly high version (88.88.1) are consistent with a dependency-confusion lure targeting an internal scope; installing this package leaks host reconnaissance data to an external endpoint.

Source: ossf-package-analysis (fe0ae07b99c275a092bcb2e4836aeb711a02f98def45f54f91bcf5ba38873807)
