The payload uses an _0x string-array dispatcher to hide its behavior; once deobfuscated, it issues an http.request POST to the hardcoded bare IP 144.172.91.84 on port 3000 at path /hello. This fires automatically on npm install, establishing an attacker-controlled callback from any installer machine and enabling tracking of successful infections and staging of follow-on payloads. The destination is unrelated to the legitimate is-odd publisher (jonschlinkert) and is not a registry, CDN, or known SDK endpoint.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"@andrewstory18/is-real-odd"},"versions":["2.0.3"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}],"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"path":"package.json","sha256":"614787a72bc97c021273d3a1595b89a98b3188548dbe24631e3f2d04659ccf4b","tlsh":"b831dc3ac4240d631eec66a0ecaa404296600c579c54fe0db3af451c0f5d23f217e7ed"},{"path":"index.min.js","sha256":"dc893fd986a36e166215de9af1269ee2114148e1cf62765917fd45fa9e78c36a","tlsh":"12311178aad065ce07029a5f2e3be5cfd505ceb43c5a0ca9c002feb17d44a28fd92971"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"is-real-odd-2.0.3.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"9fea61e007ff3961c298276ddef34568b1f9a5f4","sha512_sri":"sha512-s/t7vk9qwRZdmnRttXJ/u3mBMVl8J9feJOfuAYP3Jt1QS937wP+mKgJjJEnacBY+t0uCqB21WKcwlA6snLdC4Q=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/@andrewstory18/is-real-odd/v/2.0.3"}],"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","type":"FINDER","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"]}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-009391","import_time":"2026-07-09T20:08:40.412268597Z","modified_time":"2026-07-09T19:18:33Z","sha256":"0a6faaf0fbf39ed9ec8797c97cb8b2486be8b84eb46bfeabc3412a3eeded4aa1","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["2.0.3"]}]}}
