Summary
Malicious code in @hrmony/organisationsverwaltung (npm)
Details

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

Source: amazon-inspector (78807365ee9728923ec2d5d103ce7f4562b21e2fc8185483b482bb5d2f79748d)

@hrmony/organisationsverwaltung 7.99.0 executes credential-theft code at the top level of index.js, so simply requiring or importing the package triggers exfiltration. On load it sends a hello beacon via POST to https://hrnmn.dd.h4x.tv/save_instance_info_from_pkge_hrmony_organisationsverwaltung, then queries the AWS EC2 Instance Metadata Service at 169.254.169.254 (IMDSv2) to retrieve IAM role security-credentials and identity documents, enumerates all entries of process.env, and recursively reads every file under /var/run/secrets/ (the mount path for Kubernetes service-account tokens and mounted secrets). The collected AWS credentials, environment variables, and Kubernetes secrets are POSTed as a JSON payload to the same hardcoded endpoint at hrnmn.dd.h4x.tv. Package metadata (empty description, no repository, version 7.99.0 published under the @hrmony scope with a self-declared @hrmony/kit-5 dependency) is consistent with a dependency-confusion package targeting an internal @hrmony/* namespace.

Any computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised. 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.
