The second stage uses the NullReceiver technique to hide an IP address and C2 in the receiving Ethereum address.\n\nThe package entrypoint `lib/index.js` implements a custom character-shuffle cipher (`spin()`/`peel()`/`splitLane()`) with hardcoded numeric key arrays (NX, SX) used to decode property names and a large payload string at runtime. The `boot()` function then resolves `peel[ctor]` where `ctor` is the first 11 characters of a decoded string — almost certainly the string `'constructor'`, making `Forge` equivalent to the `Function` constructor — and calls `Forge('z', peel('\u003clarge-shuffled-payload\u003e'))` to compile and execute the hidden payload without any of its contents being statically readable. This pattern (custom reversible shuffle cipher + Function-constructor execution of an encoded string) is a deliberate obfuscation technique used specifically to hide malicious logic from static scanners; it is not produced by any standard bundler or minifier. The static analyzer scored this 5/clean because it did not detect the obfuscation layer, but the code structure is unambiguously adversarial. The absence of a source repository and the IOC `http://evil` are corroborating weak signals; the payload content and exfil endpoints cannot be confirmed without runtime deobfuscation.\n\nENTRY\n  lib/index.js (main: lib/index.js)\n\nADDITIONAL FINDINGS\n  - Dynamic Code Execution in lib/answers.js: \"exec(s)\"\n\nPAYLOAD FILES\n  lib/answers.js (+ src/answers.ts)","supportingMedia":null}],"references":[{"url":"https://opensourcemalware.com/threats/e5b86611-9fb5-44a7-bc89-2ecf3c6926f1","name":"Malicious npm package: @adminide-stack/health-api-server","tags":["advisory"]},{"url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/MAL-2026-18641","name":"","tags":["advisory"]},{"url":"https://registry.npmjs.org/@adminide-stack/health-api-server","name":"","tags":["vendor"]}],"metrics":[{"format":"CVSS_V3","scenarios":null,"cvssV2_0":null,"cvssV3_0":null,"cvssV3_1":{"version":"3.1","vectorString":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","baseScore":8.8,"baseSeverity":"HIGH"},"cvssV4_0":null,"other":null}],"problemTypes":[{"descriptions":[{"lang":"en","description":"Embedded Malicious Code","cweId":"CWE-506","type":"CWE"}]}],"affected":[{"vendor":"unknown","product":"@adminide-stack/health-api-server","collectionURL":"https://registry.npmjs.org","packageName":"@adminide-stack/health-api-server","repo":"","defaultStatus":"affected","versions":[{"version":"0.0.18-alpha.464","status":"affected","versionType":"","lessThan":"","lessThanOrEqual":"","changes":null}],"cpes":null,"modules":null,"programFiles":null,"platforms":null}],"cpeApplicability":null,"rejectedReasons":null,"replacedBy":null,"x_vulnetix_aliases":{"direct":["MAL-2026-18641"]}},"adp":null}}
